Pile-driving into the UKs DIY scene with their Council Flat Blues single on Moshi Moshi imprint Not Even Records in Feb 2011, Eagulls followed it up with a split with Fat Cats Mazes, on East Londons Italian Beach Babes Records, in Oct 2011. Since then Goldy, Liam, Tom, Henry and George have been touring relentlessly supporting the likes of US legends Flipper, Milk Music, Ceremony, Iceage and Pulled Apart By Horses in packed out shows all over Europe. Somehow finding the time along the way, to stop off in their hometown to record their longest and most melodic work to date, theyve teamed up with Leeds staple; Matthew Johnson (Spectrals, Hookworms, etc) at Suburban Home Studios for a masterclass in indie/hardcore crossover.

The five tracks Coffin, Moulting, No Ifs, No Buts, Cripple (Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis) and Still Born; bring to mind melodic slacker rock such as Sebadoh, Dinosaur Jr and Sonic Youth amalgamated with Eagulls earlier more brutal sound, influenced heavily by The Wipers and Black Flag. This is all delivered with a mischievous Blur-esque charm and The Replacements sense of reckless abandon.

Released on the 16thJuly, on either transparent green 12 vinyl (with digital download code) or via digital download, this will be the soundtrack to your revolution summer. Orders direct from the label (CLICK HERE) come with a free poster drawn by the band themselves.
