First up, a HUUUUGE thank you to everybody who came to see us play last Saturday night at Bloc for the monthly TYCI event, it was absolutely INSANE!! A fantastic way for us to start our year! Massive thanks to Lauren and the TYCI crew and everybody at Bloc for being so accommodating too!
We're hitting the road next month for three whole weeks, tearing through the UK, France, Germany, Austria, Belgium and Holland. We had such an amazing time in 2011 when we last hit Europe with our homies Stig Noise, we're dying to return to the scene of previous crimes as well as play to some fresh faces too!
To tie-in with our trek our album from last year will be getting re-released by Night School Records on CD in a limited edition double-disc package, with the second CD comprised of the tracks we released on various 7"s and EPs in 2011 and 2012. It's the first time any of these recordings have been made available on CD and it's packaged in a lush gatefold risographed wallet, printed by the Footprint Workers Co-op in Leeds, on eco-friendly thick card. Only 500 are being made and we'll have them to sell on tour, alongside plenty of vinyl!
