Massachusetts quartet Speedy Ortiz have offered up a demo of this unreleased track for a 12-inch featuring acts from the Carpark stable to celebrate the US indie label’s 16th birthday. A lo-fi affair featuring Sadie Dupuis’ cracked vocal over acoustic guitars, it’s less immediately biting than much of their superlative 2015 LP ‘Foil Deer’, but still rolls along with enough melodic idiosyncrasies to elevate it from mere acoustic pleasantness. Fourth single from a special basketball-themed picture disc to celebrate Carpark’s 16th anniversary. This release consists of nine exclusive, full-length songs and 19 locked grooves by artists from all across the Carpark catalogue. All proceeds go to the Little Kids Rocks charity. Limited to 600 copies. Out in July 24, 2015.
