Superlijm is the band of “the boy next door” Pieter-Jan Delesie whose songs are inspired by Grandaddy, Pavement and other great sounds of the 90’s. In his songs Delesie both musically and lyrically takes us back to that wonderful decade, when Belgium’s national goalkeeper Michel Preud’homme still had long curly hair and Edwin Van der Sar was only a rookie. Back then it was cool to paint t-shirts, All Stars made yet another comeback and Delesie was already trying to save the world by singing his songs, wearing nothing but Speedo trunks and a towel around his neck.
Fast forward about 14 years later and Delesie feels it’s time to save the world from an extra-terrestrial attack by building a supersonic wall of sound. His first EP was released in May 2009 by Collectief Debonair. The first single “Michael Jordan” had its fair share of airplay on the national radio network. Nowadays Superlijm is a five-piece band who have just finished their debut album on which they are reaching back for that 90’s guitar sound, with songs to match. It’s fuzzy, nostalgic at times, but above all it’s damn addictive. STAY TUNED!
Release date: Feb 20, 2012
