Freestylers - Painkiller

August 30, 2006

Aston Harvey and Matt Cantor aka Freestylers, follow up their critically acclaimed album ?Raw As F**k?, with the head-rush rhythms of
?Painkiller?, the first track to be taken from their fourth studio album ?Adventures In Freestyle?.

?Painkiller? is five and a half minutes of pure, uncut Freestylers filthiness aimed squarely at the dancefloor, it sees the duo team up with Australian drum n bass
hero?s Pendulum, who shot to notoriety last year with the release of their debut album ?Hold Your Colour?. As we have previously witnessed from ?Fasten Your Seat
Belts? the Freestylers / Pendulum combination is an awesome one and this next single comes complete with the vocal talent of SirReal for an added energy boost.


?Painkiller? is laced with a grimy guitar riff and the trademark pedal-to-the-metal Freestylers breaks giving a taster of the forthcoming album ?Adventures in
Freestyle?, but those expecting a no nonsense breakbeat long player, should prepare themselves for a few surprises. Combining Matt & Aston?s love for balls-out,
straight-up party music, with a song-writing sensibility and joint influences spanning soul, hip hop, funk, disco and even rock, ?Adventures in Freestyle? will
intrigue and excite in equal measure.

But in the meantime, dose yourself up with the aural analgesic of ?Painkiller?, released on September 18th, Against The Grain.
