Nikita Khruschev, Rick Stein and Wurzel Gummidge are the names to singand shout this autumn. They are all alluded to on the all-newseven-track EP from British Sea Power. The Zeus EP will be released onMonday 4 October, an edit of the title track is available for freehere <http://bit.ly/bspzeus> The EP was recorded in East Sussex and on the Isle Of Skye and startswith two seven-minute tracks of wildly different character. The titletrack sets new standards for progressive garage-rock � a recordingthat suggests waking from the crazed impetus of a lusty dream full ofdead Soviet leaders and TV chefs and scarecrows. The followingCleaning Out The Rooms is an expansive and reflective beauty, a thingof the wind-buffeted shorelines. Elsewhere there is lambent prettinessand care-in-the-community exclamation; 43 minutes in total. (Pleasenote that, due to considerations of surprise and secrecy, only thephysical CD & 12� formats run to 43 mins. Buying the EP digitally willresult in a slightly shorter collection of music. Hmm, we wonder whythis could be?) The EP acts as an alarming and unwashed set ofoutriders, a wild-eyed advance guard for the fourth BSP studio album,set for release in January. Of the EP tracks, only Cleaning Out TheRooms will feature on this new album.

At 43 minutes thats pretty much album length, looking forward to this, I've seen them play Zeus a couple of times, remember being really strong, I seem to remember it having different sections, I'm sure there are some youtube videos or something..
