  • 'Check My Heart' is the first single taken from The Pastels album Slow Summits. Order the album here: www.dominorecor...
    Slow Summits will be released on May 27th through Domino.
    'Check My Heart' is all optimism, boldly announced by Katrina Mitchell's intrepid vocal overlaps and Stephen McRobbie's more melancholic counter. The sound is 3D, vivid - The Pastels' love of garage punk, soul crossover and first-wave independent clatter converging all too briefly, winding down the window and racing off into the summertime.
    Shot on 16mm film with minimum set-ups, Blair Young's 'Check My Heart' promo is the story of one early spring Saturday in Glasgow. Lives overlap, connect, coincide, the music is a constant; sometimes it's only playing in our heads.

    💖Lyrics:
    Check my heart
    Check your heart
    Check my heart
    You check your heart
    Dive down, tumbling down
    Dive down, we're checking and checking
    Dive down, tumbling down
    Dive down, we're checking and checking
    You on your mountaintop and me on mine
    I wanted to leap by you
    You on your mountaintop and me on mine
    I wanted to leap by you
    You on your mountaintop and me on mine
    I wanted to leap by you
    I was my own dark cloud
    I was nothing with no one around
    I wanted a lifetime, not just a
    Fall in your arms
    Check my heart
    You check your heart
    Check my heart
    Check your heart
    Dive down, tumbling down
    Dive down, tumbling down
    Dive down, tumbling down
    Dive down, tumbling down
    Me on my mountaintop and you on yours
    Me on my mountaintop and you on yours
    I was my own black hole
    You shone a light in my soul
    I wanted a lifetime, not just a
    Fall in your arms
    Check my heart
    Check your heart
    Check my heart
    We're checking, we're checking

      I remember I was so excited when this first dropped, but then have come to realize it's been quite a while since it did, and I'm feeling rather sad now. Maybe Stephen will drop some clues from their Instagram account. Really feeling the need for some new Pastels right now, to get through the freak show shitstorm of the next several months.

      That makes no sense. It should be the other way around, with little Liam opening for the mighty Pastels. Oasis was a product created in and confined to the '90s. The Pastels are timeless and forever.
