Listen: The Big Pink - "Hit the Ground (Superman)"

After the release of early single "Stay Gold", The Big Pink release yet another single ahead of their album "Future This" set to come out in mid January. "Hit the Ground (Superman)" demonstrates the mellower yet always infectious songwriting ability of the British duo.  According to the press release and judging by the brilliant AraabMUZIK remix of "Stay Gold" we can expect some big remixes of the track soon.  Until then listen to the original directly on the 4AD website.

Watch: The Big Pink - "Stay Gold"

The Big Pink's "A Brief History of Love" came out of nowhere yet quickly became one of my favorite records of 2009.  I always thought they sounded like a british Tough Alliance with big stadium hooks-a-plenty and a more 'in-your-face' punk atittude.  Their sophomore album on 4AD "Future This", which is due in January 2012, sounds like it's going in the same direction.  The infectious first single off that album "Stay Gold" has a video which you can watch below:
