Following on from last year’s acclaimed R.O.I. album, Manchester, UK’s Aerial Salad are set to return to the fray with a brand new five track EP, Roi De L’Herbe, that will be released on June 27th on 12” vinyl and digital formats via Venn Records. No longer in the same line of spirit destroying day job work, with some seriously exciting gigs on the horizon, Aerial Salad wanted to kick off the next era of the band with a short, fast and hard EP and have served up five absolute bangers that sit somewhere between 2020’s Dirt Mall album and R.O.I. Today, the band have previewed another cut from the forthcoming EP with new single, Wires.

“Wires is an aggressive dismantling of modern work/life culture. As we head ever deeper into the digital abyss. I’d rather be on fire than have to spend my life looking at spreadsheets. The most ‘punk’ movement of my youth was the grime movement. It was ALL DIY, and it absolutely dominated British culture, there’s a lot of similarities between grime / punk / hardcore. From the fashion to the beats. So, we thought we’d do a 50-pound music video ‘on a nostalgic backdrop’. ‘Wires’ picks up from where ‘Telekon 5’ left, you can’t keep drifting from what you believe in, and you can’t be tied by matters beyond what’s really important in life. The EP is like the teaser for what’s next. The overall hook for this EP is one of hope, that by sticking to what you believe in you can do anything.” (singer and guitarist Jamie Munro)
