G.Q. – Lies / Is It Cool? (limited 7″ repress)
We’ve become accustomed to Athens of the North delivering 7″ singles packed full of obscure gems. Interestingly, the two tracks here – as great as they are – are relatively easy to come by, both being featured on GQ’s overlooked by readily available 1980 album GQ Two. Even so, they’re more than worthy of the reissue treatment, with A-side “Lies” – previously re-edited by Theo Parrish for his Ugly Edits series – offering a particularly sweet dose of warm and fuzzy disco/soul fusion. Flispide “Is It Cool” is almost as essential, with soaring horns and a killer bassline combining perfectly with the band’s urgent, attractive vocals.
