Dutch indie legends Bettie Serveert have unveiled their new fantasy-filled video for B-Cuz from their Damaged Good LP. This 11thstudio album is being released by North Carolina based indie retail store and label Schoolkids Records as an exclusive limited-edition vinyl title, timed to sync with the Tenth Annual Record Store Day event, to be held on April 22nd, 2017.
Bettie Serveert is a four-piece comprised of Carol van Dyk (vocals and guitar), Peter Visser (guitar), Herman Bunskoeke (bass guitar) and Joppe Molenaar (drums). The first three members are all from the original band lineup.Since starting everything with their classic Palomine LP, the band is celebrating their 25th anniversary this year with the vinyl release of Damaged Good. This collection also includes the rock duet Love Sick with Peter teBos, vocalist from the famous Dutch band Claw Boys Claw.
Damaged Good is one of The Betties' most diverse albums so far, including 11 tracks ranging from 60 seconds to an 8 min epos and everything in between. This album experience is intense, raw and tender, but it is also passionate and fierce. On B-Cuz, Bettie Serveert offer a positive, energy-filled upbeat track that presents a perfect balance between alternative pop and rock. The cleverly-plotted accompanying video, which leads us into a quick fun-loving fantasy tale you should likely not watch on heavy narcotics, was directed and filmed by Sjors Schuitemaker.
Schoolkids Records will also be presenting one other Record Store Day release this year - the Symmetry/ Slow Drag 7" single from North Carolina-NYC shoegaze pioneers The Veldt.
