YACHT are currently touring the U.K. with patrick Wolf, to promote their new album See Mystery Lights, available July 28 on DFA Records. Additionally, they've pressed a limited run of 1,000 7" singles titled "Don't Put Out," hitting stores June 16. The release, also available digitally, includes a dub version of "Waste of Time," and a remix by Hedford Vachal will be featured on a 12" single.
"Don't Put Out" (as you may know), is in reference to a quote from the pre-riot grrl, cult classic film Ladies And Gentlemen the Fabulous Stains. The film features Diane Lane, Laura Dern, Paul Simonon (The Clash), Steve Jones and Paul Cook of The Sex Pistols, and Fee Waybill (The Tubes). According to the band, the message inspired by the film, and conveyed on the single, is "Don't be an old man in a young girls' world." The songs "Waste Of Time" and "Professionals" were originally performed by all female faux band The Stains, from the 1981 Lou Adler film. Rrriot on!
