Static Friction Announce Fall US Tour Dates
Boston, MA melodic punk band Static Friction will be playing a Halloween show on October 31st at Hyannis MA's Flashback…
Hull four-piece Bedsit have announced their debut EP, Dead Bands, will be released on the 3rd February via their own independent label Forever Underdogs, the self produced four track EP will be available on CD and via all major streaming and download platforms. From the opening feedback-drenched power of Drip Feed to the final chaotic absurdities of Eloquent, you may hear Fugazi, Husker Du, Buffalo Tom or Dead Kennedys as reference points, occasionally even Discharge in the coruscating guitar sounds, but all four tracks retain an identity that remain unique and consistent to Bedsit throughout.
“The EP is about the chaos and uncertainty of modern times, the struggle for meaning and motivation. We all have the sense that something isn’t right. We often get cynical and angry. But, occasionally, we get a glimpse of the magical – a moment of ecstasy – and that relief is worth living for. This is our first EP as a full band and the title track is a celebration of the heritage of live music. From gigantic rock stars who inspired generations, to local artists who you think never got the exposure they deserved, they were all answering the same calling – blessed release. How those burning passions, die as they may, continue to smoulder in the hearts of strangers, inspiring joy and creativity.”
Bedsit have also announced a run of UK tour dates, including a hometown EP launch show on the 18th February at Hull’s Dive HU5 alongside The Last Hearts and All Demons Have Disciples.
