- Taken from the debut album Bright Green Field, out 7th May: squidband.uk/
We started writing Paddling when we were but kids still living in Brighton. Last summer we really got into playing this together again. Straight away we started to work the tune into new places whilst we were writing at the Old Road in Chippenham, the track became an important part of Bright Green Field for us.
Recording Paddling was great, it was quite hot so naturally the tempo was upped a fair bit too. Dan Carey’s modular synthesizer is definitely the 6th band member in this one, turning Louis & Anton’s guitars into racecars from about the 5 minute mark.
Our debut album Bright Green Field is out 7th May on @warprecords! This is the debut album we’ve always wanted to make and without a doubt the most ambitious thing we’ve ever done. We can’t wait for you to hear the whole thing. And especially to be able to play it to you in person…….

-- Paddling Lyrics --
Patient, in control
Dig holes like a mole
Patient, oars in stow
Just do what you’re told
There are people inside
They’re changing in shape and in size
Where you going? Don’t want to go there
You comb your hair and you tense the muscle
Patient, in control
Dig holes like a mole
Patient, oars in stow
Just do what you’re told
There are people, there are people inside
And they’re changing in shape and in size
Where you going? I don’t want to go there
You comb your hair and you tense the muscle
There are people, there are people inside
And they’re watching while I’m taking the dive
Where you going? I don’t want to go there
You comb your hair and you tense the muscle
Thrash round, make it worse
In your day of firsts
Sink down, through the waves
Red faced now but safe
There are people, there are people inside
And they’re changing in shape and in size
Where you going? I don’t want to go there
You comb your hair and you tense the muscle
There are people there are people inside
Put me a coat and step me in line
Where you going? I don’t want to go there
You comb your hair and you tense the muscle
Don’t push me in
Don’t Push me in
Well you’re pushing me in
Well you’re pushing me in

Sharing ‘Paddling’ with you all. We started writing it when we were but kids still living in Brighton. Last summer we really got into playing this together again. Straight away we started to work the tune into new places whilst we were writing at the Old Road in Chippenham, the track became an important part of Bright Green Field for us.
Recording Paddling was great, it was quite hot so naturally the tempo was upped a fair bit too. Dan Carey’s modular synthesizer is definitely the 6th band member in this one, turning Louis & Anton’s guitars into racecars from about the 5 minute mark.
4’57” to be precise and on 5’28” it kicks up a gear to its epic crescendo!
It would be great to hear this on a 12” extended version vinyl, as it finishes to soon and my appetite for it was still going strong!
this track slaps
Can’t wait for the album guys! Keep up the sick ass music! This track is killer!!!!!
Chippenham!?!?!?!? yoo
its surely a banger, glad you put it out!!
Feel like I’ve been waiting for this record since 1983.
Me too
this is one of those bands where once you hear them you can't believe they didn't already exist
Squid is really innovating a lot with this 2 singles so far, can´t wait to the album
This and cavalcade, easily best albums of 2021. And top 50 albums of all time for me.
Tears of joy stream down thy face
On it 🙋
' Narrator ' ' the cleaner ' and this gem are among the best tunes I've heard in ages!
Keep up the good work, boys. Greetings from Brum.
You might like Parquet Courts too then
@@mricardo96 dang i never realized how similar they were until your comment, i got a parquet courts poster on my door right in front of me as i listen to this song
Where the FUCK is brum???
ALBUM OF THE YEAR LETS GOOOO
I can't remember the last time I was so rediculously excited for a debut album!
OH WELL YOU’RE PUSHIN’ ME IN
I absolutely adore the groove at the 5:00 mark. Can’t wait for your Dublin gig in September!
sounds like early new order playing pink floyd song, awesome
Reminiscent of DEVO.
Easily one of the most creative bands in the current post punk scene, keep up the great work guys and I can't wait to hear the album!
You guys are incredibly amazing. Really would love to see you guys live, thank you so much for this amazing music. And the many more to come ❤️🤘
Can't wait for the album guys. The mix sounds absolutely gorgeous on this
Been waiting since the first EP for this album... awesome to see that finally happen
Another brilliant surprise. Thank you for what you do, album’s already shaping up to be a masterpiece. Sending love from Miami!
King gizzard and the squid wizard
The Dukes of Stratosphear going on here....very cool
Dukes of Gomorrah, if we're gonna go full XTC on it
Getting huge This Heat vibes from that beginning part, love it
The ending needed to go on for at least ten more minutes
I am such a sucker for Dan Carey production. I could tell this was him before checking the description
Reminds me of the The Feelies' "Crazy Rhythms" somehow. The way percussion is used. The sound of the guitars. The tightness. Rhythmic minimalism & extremly harmonic parts. Love it.
I hear some Talking Heads influence, of course, some Krautrock as well, but I think they are doing an excellent job implementing these influences into their music and creating a beautiful sound. They are definitely not ripping off Talking Heads or any other band for that matter.
doesn't sound anything like talking heads though imo though :(((
@@aidangallagher8703 vocal line at 2.10?
@@Legitimatelylegend1 the vocals are the closest thing, some call and response stuff like in slippery people - but musically sounds more like joy division and radiohead than talking heads
@@aidangallagher8703 Radiohead?! Interesting, In rainbows era?
@@aidangallagher8703 I think it’s the energy of the songs that make people draw parallels between squid and TH. Bit eccentric and groovy
Black Midi, Squid, and Black Country New Road are my new Holy Trinity ♥️♥️♥️
THEY DID IT AGAIN
Well damn! I'm really hyped for this album. May 7th can't come fast enough.
Beautiful.
Incredible song! Loving all the singles so far- this one kicks off with a Bowie/Eno Berlin years Lodger vibe - love it
The wait is ALMOST OVER for the debut full length!! Craving MORE SQUID!
Another bop! I CANNOT wait to see you guys play in Dublin this September!!
This is the fourth song me hearing from this album - and it again exceeded the ones before. Where will this end?!? This is madness!
Again, yes. Y'all kick ass!!!
I hear Mark e Smith here. I'm sure he would have loved this. I'm actually in love with this band.
Gets better and better with each listening - class.
Supreme Sound,Love the band🎶💚
You guys have blown me away. I wish I was in England right now just so I'd have a better chance of seeing this live. You guys have made me more confident in not only my music but vocals, it's not shown here but trust me. You guys have been such an inspiration to me
This song is so sick. I love how the beginning has nods to old school UK dNb like Ed Rush & Optical.
My thoughts exactly! the synths/drum machines at the start is pure techstep
How has this not got 20 millions views yet? Best band since IDLES.
I'm not an album-of-the-year-type, but your work fits quite perfect to this definition. Can't wait to see you live in Milano! Thanks for sharing your sounds with us. Lovely, really, just lovely
I found this song a few days ago through a good friend… I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve hit that replay button at this point
Dig holes
Like a mole !
Cheers from Reseda, California
I like your band very much. Get big enough to come to my little city someday please, or just come now for funzies.
Damn this album is going to be killer
Wow. Just wow.
It's great 🤗 thanks u Youngsters 4 this Groove 😁
I'm remembered 4 "CAN" mixed with "B52's" and its really really goood 🤗 Rock'n'Roll🤘😜🤘
I love Talking Heads!
So do we!!!
Talking Squids? Squid Heads? Stop Making Squids?! SQUID MAKING SENSE???
Love this! The beginning reminds me a little bit now Bowie/Eno Berlin years esp something from Lodger
I love this stuff
i have no idea what i’m looking at but the song is ace
you gonna be big this is great cheers
Ça sort des sentiers battus - love that
Top banana this one is lads
dude huge. new squid bop drop
Oh yahhhh!!
Great music
I got a squid tour add and paddling was playing in the background so I heard the intro riff twice
Yes.❤xxx merci.😁😁😎
Damn this band just gives the perfect match for me. Also sometimes it almost sounds like a mix of Parquet Courts and Talking Heads and that's amazing!
Excellent, excellent song. Fred Schneider from the B-52’s I’m sure would also agree.
LETS GOOOOOOO
KOOL!!!
We want the album !!! Fucking awesome song.
Absolutely!
AOTY, LESSGOOOOOO.
[LYRICS]
(Patient, in control) Patient and in control
(Dig holes like a mole) Dig holes like a mole
(Patient, oars in stow) Patient and oars in stow
(Just do what you're told) Just do what you're told
There are people inside
And they're changing in shape and in size
Where you going? Don't wanna go there
You comb your hair and you tense the muscle
There are people, there are people inside
And they're changing in shape and in size
Where you going? Don't wanna go there
But you comb your hair and you tense the muscle
Patient, in control
Dig holes like a mole
Patient, oars in stow
Just do what you're told
There are people, there are people inside
And they're changing in shape and in size
Where you going? Don't wanna go there
You comb your hair and you tense the muscle
There are people, there are people inside
And they're watching while I'm taking the dive
Where you going? Don't wanna go there
You comb your hair and you tense the muscle
Thrash 'round, make it worse
In your day of firsts
Sink down, through the waves
Red faced now but safe
There are people, there are people inside
And they're changing in shape and in size
Where you going? Don't wanna go there
You comb your hair and you tense the muscle
There are people, there are people inside
Put me a coat and step me in line
Where you going? Don't wanna go there
You comb your hair and you tense the muscle
Don't push me in
Don't push me in
Don't push me in
Don't push me in
Don't push me in
Don't push me in
Well, you're pushing me in
Well, you're pushing me in
Don't push me in
Don't push me in
Well, you're pushing me in
Well, you're pushing me in
(I don't wanna go there
You're pushing me in
I don't wanna go there
You're pushing me in)
Don't push me in
Don't push me in
Don't push me in
Don't push me in
Don't push me in
Don't push me in
My personal favourite track on Bright Green Field
5:06 onwards reminds me a lot of Nine Inch Nails, specifically parts of the Hesitation Marks album.
Thank You bbc6music

So Talking Heads inspired. Incredible. Album's going to be crazy.
Letttsss goooo
DAMN OK SQUID ❗❗

The synth entry ups the standard of this song.
🎶👌
Très très fort
Huw Stephens ,sitting in for Marc Riley, aired this tune today on 6 Music.
To think the day came when I saw a squid kayak
Black Country, New Road wanted the AOTY. Squid interfered.
Nice production! The voice is direct from no wave movement time : Contortions and Devo in englisch melodie, but really fresh . I like it!👍🏻

Art Brut + plenty of ammo - a band = Squid
I can hear a smidge of Tom Vek style vocals.
That squid !! Made me …..patience and watch me toes!
Radiohead / KGATWL / Snapped Ankles / Kraut vibe going on here for me 🙏🏼☺️🤪❤️ Looking forward to seeing this live in July...
The amount of influence from Radiohead showing its head across all genres right now is truly insane
Still a banger
Melon sent me here. I’m pleased!
