UV-TV are back with Always Something, the title track from their imminent new full Length, which is set to be released on the 28th May via PaperCup Music. Hung up on the conflicting dualities of chaos and boredom that have defined life over the last year, Always Something finds UV-TV searching for comfort and inspiration in the “inevitability of inconveniences and false hopes”.

Written over the course of the first lockdown, UV-TV attempted to recreate the throbbing rhythms, pulsating vibrations and grinding monotony of the day-to-day hustle that existed before Covid. Now as their native New York City roars into life once more, UV-TV accompany its re-awakening with their own slow-burning score; capturing the city’s inherent pulse with a cascade of loping Sonic Youth-esque riffs and flourishes of Jesus & Mary Chain gilded shoegaze. 

Turning down the tempo of its predecessors, yet turning up the racket, Always Something captures an altogether different side of UV-TV. Propelled by Ian Bernacett‘s maverick guitar signatures, Ian Rose‘s driving percussives and Rose Vastola‘s airily disconnected vocals, over the course of a sprawling 4’30 UV-TV charter a mesmeric descent into an abyss of feedback, noise and simmering static.
