From two-minute pop perfection, to the sound of drug-induced nightmare psychoses, Beechwood’s music hits you where it hurts. The NYC-based trio consists of Gordon Lawrence (guitar/vox), Isa Tineo (drums/vox) and Sid Simons (bass/vox), all of whom draw their rock n’roll line in the dirt and ask the world, which side are you on?
On June 8 the band will release their new album Inside the Flesh Hotel on Alive Naturalsound Records (Iggy Pop & James Williamson, The Black Keys) and will celebrate with a European tour. The album is the follow-up to the recently released Songs From the Land of Nod LP, which garnered enthusiastic reviews across the board. This time around the band went for stronger production and catchier sing-a-longs. They mix garage, psych, and glam rock into a sound that is at once a throwback to a golden period of rock and roll as well as a sign of hope in a time when we see less and less guitar bands and true rock. It’s no surprise that they have drawn comparisons from an eclectic range of acts, from The Handsome Family and Conor Oberst, to the Rolling Stones and Jim O’Rourke.
Today Glide is excited to premiereBeechwood’s newest single, “Our Love Was Worth The Heartbreak”, an anthemic love song and a medley of indie-folk and Americana, with a touch of Nicky Hopkins-inspired piano. The band gets romantic, hanging on simpler, more tactile memories. Alas, youth is an alibi, and Gordon Lawrence pleads his case, singing “Our love was worth the heartbreak that came later / Now time keeps moving fast, but my boots ain’t built to last / Our love was worth the heartbreak that came later.” The song is less of a charged up rocker and more of a commiserating folk rocker with a loose, whiskey-passing vibe, making it one of the more fun tunes on the album.
