Spin spin circling Let's go round again Turn turn to unlearn The things we need not know Grown so fast nothing lasts Let's go round again Take a ride by my side Hold on tight let's go Come on climb aboard with me And we'll spin right back through memory In the corners of our minds The childhood dreams we try to find Reverse the ride Follow me round Spin spin circling Let's go round again Turn turn to unlearn The things we need not know Reel around Lost is found Let's go round again Take a ride by my side Hold on tight let's go Come on climb aboard with me And we'll spin right back through memory In the corners of our minds The childhood dreams we try to find Reverse the ride Follow me round Take a ride by my side Let's go round again Come on climb aboard with me And we'll spin right back through memory In the corners of our minds The childhood dreams we try to find Reverse the ride Follow me round

Got no use for LSD Every time you look at me I'm up so high Oh yeah I'm up so high I am so far off the ground I ain't never coming down I'm up so high Oh yeah I'm up so high I don't need no aeroplane You do something to my brain I'm up so high Oh yeah I'm up so high You got everything I need Do I love you? Oh yes indeed I'm up so high Oh yeah I'm up so high

The last vinyl single by THE PRIMITIVES that we released, “Lose The Reason” (which sold out in just a few days) was the first taste of the group’s new songs and of their upcoming album. “Spin-O-Rama” is big news. First of all, because there is a new and appetizing release for all the people who love THE PRIMITIVES’ songs; secondly, because this single is another step closer to the release of their upcoming full-length, this time with their own songs, for Elefant Records. And the third reason is that this imminent new album is full of songs as fabulous as “Spin-O-Rama” and “Lose The Reason”.

“Spin-O-Rama” has a delicious arpeggio motif that reminds us of something from an early Cat Stevens’ single, guitars in the best tradition of C86, a chorus that is brazenly catchy and a dynamic that takes you up and down like a roller coaster, elated and overjoyed. It sounds like a HIT for sure. The B-side is one of their trademark covers (we already got a taste of them on their last album), of which we are such fans. It’s like something pulled out of an old crate full of dusty 7” singles of the kind of forgotten gems that collectors obsess over. In this case the cover is of a group from the mid-sixties called THE WHAT’S NEW, who, curiously, despite being Americans, only barely released a few things in France, among which we can find the marvelous “Up So High”, which our protagonists respectfully recovered, maintaining the luminosity of the choruses and the vitality of the guitars. It could easily have been an early influence on THE FLAMING LIPS.

This 7” clear vinyl, in a numbered limited-edition of 500 copies, has two incredible songs. And now, we are anxious and fidgety, waiting for this new full-length that confirms that THE PRIMITIVES are enjoying a second youth and a magical era that brings back their best moments with that freshness and immediacy that their first hits had.

This album is utterly astounding - funny, moving, upbeat and more infectious than lice. I cannot stop playing this over and over and over - it's like sunshine with spikes. All the tracks are amazing, but the one that has me jumping about the most, is Unicorn in Uniform. Music to crash your car to :) Lalo
