DAIISTAR announce limited edition 7" 'Clear' with B-Side Sonic Boom remix
Austin, TX noise-pop upstarts DAIISTAR are today releasing their blissed-out new single ‘Clear’. The new track arrives off the back of their highly-praised 2023 debut album 'Good Time' – an 80s/90s-indebted blend of narcotic noise and melody produced by Alex Maas of The Black Angels and engineered by White Denim's James Petralli. Backed by a Sonic Boom remix of 'Good Time' album track 'Velvet Reality' on the B-side, ‘Clear’ will be released on a limited neon-pink 7" due out May 10th 2024. You can pre-order the 7"here
An unheard cut from the 'Good Time' sessions, DAIISTAR's Alex Capistran (guitar/vocals) says that "the idea behind 'Clear' was to write the perfect song for a perfect day. A song that comes to mind on a warm and sunny afternoon; inspiring thoughts of attainable bliss and encouraging you to dream up something nice for your future self."
Having spent 2023 touring North America with The Black Angels, The Brian Jonestown Massacre and The Dandy Warhols – including festival appearances at Levitation/Austin Psych Fest, Desert Daze, SXSW, Freak Out, Treefort and a recent KEXP session to boot – and with a seven-week European tour kicking off in April 2024, 'Clear' is the woozy, reverb-soaked sound of a band on the rise.
