Agent K The Primitives are still recording?....Flashback from the late 80's.
Tracy still possesses a heavenly smooth silky female voice straight out of the 60's with spiky upbeat power/indie pop melodies.
Every one of their songs has always felt like a hit single from the AM Radio heydays of the 70's.
Fans of Blondie & the Pretenders will love this.
Timeless Voice and Band! Favorite track: Lose The Reason.

What will we do come tomorrow? It will happen anyway Still some time that we could borrow Not enough to last a day So this fire is growing dimmer So this flame is growing small Sift the ashes find a glimmer Nothing glowing here at all How did we lose the reason Where has it gone? What happened to the season in the sun? How did we lose the reason Where has it gone? What happened to the season? In the sun In the sun In the sun What will we do come tomorrow? It will happen anyway No more hopes or dreams to follow Nothing left just walk away So this fire is growing dimmer So this flame is growing small Sift the ashes find a glimmer Nothing glowing here at all How did we lose the reason Where has it gone? What happened to the season in the sun? How did we lose the reason Where has it gone? What happened to the season In the sun In the sun In the sun

Thought that I was free but it ain't so Whatever this is it won't let me go And I guess you were always coming back Am I tied forever to your track? All of these years I've been spun round and locked in your game Different face - will I know you by some other name? Said that I would not fall again Cuz I'm so much wiser than back then But I guess you were always coming back Will I fall once more into your trap? All of these years I've been spun round and locked in your game Different face - will I know you by some other name? Thought that I was free but it ain't so Whatever this is it won't let me go And I guess you were always coming back Am I tied forever to your track? Guess you were always coming back Will I fall once more in to your trap?

FORMATS: 7" Single [Numbered Limited Edition of 500 copies] [Clear Vinyl] / Digital Single

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

After the unique and much praised covers album, “Echoes and Rhymes”, THE PRIMITIVES are releasing a new single, a limited-edition 45 featuring two new, original songs. On one side, the title track, “Lose The Reason” goes back to THE PRIMITIVES at their most hyper, most urgent, mixing addictive choruses, with accelerated guitars, and a vocal duel between Paul and Tracy Tracy that, like a dispirited Sonny and Cher, moves ambiguously between provocative and spiteful mocking to bitterness over love lost. On the other side, we have “Always Coming Back,” a song that gives way to their more sixties-styled leanings, as if Nancy Sinatra or Bobbie Gentry had joined THE VELVET UNDERGROUND to do a cover of a BEATLES’ song, while Tracy sings of some mysterious force from the past holding sway once again.

This is proof that the group is still fully charged and full of inspiration, and these songs make us dream of a new and magnificent album of fresh material. We are waiting impatiently.
