The Needle Drops On the innocence mission’s New Track
The Needle Drop has a quote from the innocence mission’s Karen Peris about the band’s new single “This Thread Is A Green Street.” The track is at radio now and will open the band’s forthcoming new album, due in November. Karen says, “A sort of envisioning the landscape as a world of doorways, that might allow us to locate memory or to be nearer in some way to people we miss. The transportive quality of scenes we might come upon in the natural world, or even in everyday objects – a sewing thread when I’m mending something could remind me of a street map. One of the things about recording it was, how to find this feeling inside the sound, and how to find the half-remembered beauty of sing-alongs of our 1970’s childhoods. There’s a search in recording that goes on being elusive, in a good way.”
