Shhadows & Small Planets team up again for a cover of Ned’s Atomic Dustbin’s ‘Grey Cell Green’
Shhadows and Small Planets reunite to deliver a cover of Ned’s Atomic Dustbin’s classic track, “Grey Cell Green”. This new release, out via Re:Mission Entertainment, sees both bands blending their distinct sounds to create a shoegaze and darkwave hybrid.
Small Planets, hailing from Los Angeles, bring dark, ethereal music that is reminiscent of Cocteau Twins, The Cure, and Slowdive. Shhadows from their side are based in Denver and bring a blend of darkwave and post-punk witch house influences.
This is the second collaboration between Shhadows & Small Planets. Their previous collaboration was an original track called “E” on the 2022 Shhadow’s album, “Bloodwork”. For their rendition of “Grey Cell Green”, they decided to move away from the punk vibe of the original and instead focus on crafting a slower, more ethereal sound and we quote from their press release: “Transforming ‘Grey Cell Green’ into a shoegaze and darkwave blend was an exciting challenge. We wanted to retain the emotional core of the song while giving it our unique twist.”
The new single is out now. You can download it below from Bandcamp.
