Delorean is an alternative dance band from Barcelona and the most recent signee to True Panther Sounds, the NYC-based indie label that was purchased by Matador Records late last year. True Panther is best known for putting out Album by Girls, one of last year’s most critically acclaimed indie records. If you want a cheap laugh, check out their ultra low budget / intentionally tacky website. Last year while in Spain for the Primavera Sound music festival, the team at True Panther discovered that Delorean, only known to American fans for their remix work, were an actual band with two studio albums and plenty of homegrown fans. “Stay Close,” which was recently released as a free download, is the first single from Subiza, their third LP and first to get a proper release in America. It won’t officially be available until June 8, but Subiza is already getting buzz as a potential album of the year contender. If the rest of the album sounds like “Stay Close,” the hype may be well justified. Give it a listen below.
