The core characteristic of New York rock has always been a raucous, youthful, devil-may-care energy—stumbling around the Lower East Side at 4 AM, or having a drunken conversation on an L train heading east. And it’s a description that aptly fits Been Stellar.
In preparation for a UK tour with The Goa Express, New York’s Been Stellar have just released their new single, “Kids 1995”. A jubilant celebration of youth, the song’s title is taken from Larry Clark’s seminal film. It’s exactly the sort of music a late night romp through city streets lends itself towards. The tune reflects the ruleless odyssey portrayed in the movie, traversing a scorching 90’s New York summer. It contemplates innocence lost and the acceptance of life as it is.
