Sacred Paws

Jump Into Life

    Glasgow/London duo Sacred Paws return to the fold after a five year hiatus, with their new album ‘Jump Into Life’ via Rock Action Records.

    When the band broke through with their debut record 'Six Songs' EP, they did so with firm intent and rousing success. The duo of Ray Aggs (Trash Kit, Shopping) and Eilidh Rodgers (Golden Grrrls) have their roots in the punk world which they wound together with a myriad of influences, from Afrobeat, through pop and post-punk, to create a glorious and unique hybrid.

    STAFF COMMENTS

    Barry says: It's no secret that I love Rock Action Records, with Cloth (and Mogwai, obviously) being right up top in the list of my favourite bands, so I am always predisposed to enjoying their wares. Sacred Paws are a little different to the aforementioned though, they certainly have the jagged art-rock guitars and mathy percussion but their songs are a lot more melodic and anthemic than the instrumentation would suggest. A heady and entrancing mix of indie, post-rock and folky vocal harmonies.

    Sacred Paws

    Run Around The Sun

      Run Around The Sun is the follow-up to Strike A Match, Sacred Paws' SAY Award winning debut. It includes the previously shared ‘Brush Your Hair’, an infectiously fun listen. The album will appeal to fans of their previous work plus fans of Shopping, Girl Ray and Aldous Harding.

      STAFF COMMENTS

      Barry says: In keeping with their superb LP from 2017, Sacred Paws have crafted a brilliantly nuanced but hugely listenable combination of jangling indie-pop, driven post-rock atmospherics and angular punky attitude. Completely brilliant, once again.

      Sacred Paws

      Strike A Match

        Formed while members of pop noise group Golden Grrls, Rachel Aggs and Eilidh Rodgers release their debut album as Sacred Paws through Glasgow's Rock Action Records. The album features 10 short but very sweet infectious guitar pop tunes.

        For fans of The Raincoats, Sleater Kinney and Warpaint.

        STAFF COMMENTS

        Barry says: Lots of twanging guitar and two-part harmonies, swaying surf-guitar lines and beautifully intricate rhythmic melodies. Not twee enough to be twee, but melodic, addictive and brilliant.

        Sacred Paws

        Everyday / Rest

          After the successful sell out of their debut EP to Rock Action last year, the label announce the release of Sacred Paws’ full album early 2017. This double A side single features the first two tracks to be taken from that album.

          The band’s infectious high energy rhythms have gained fans such as Marc Riley on BBC6 Music. This should appeal to anybody who likes their songs short and sweet with an uplifting feel of summery punk pop.

          For fans of Sleater Kinney, Courtney Barnett and Warpaint.
