Black Spiders Release New Single & Announce UK Tour Dates And Record Store Day Vinyl

When Sheffield, UK’s Black Spiders announced their hiatus in 2017, no one in their right minds would have predicted that when the good times, big balls n’ riffs rockers did return, it would be in the middle of a global pandemic. But that is, of course, exactly what happened and in March of this year, Black Spiders unleashed their highly anticipated self-titled album upon an eager, locked down, hungry audience. Yet, despite the album’s thirteen new kicking jams having been recorded in complete isolation, and with new drummer, Planet Rock DJ Wyatt Wendel, having never been in the same room as the rest of the band, it’s testament to the band that they still managed to sound like five men in a hot and sweaty rehearsal room, tight and upfront and in each other’s faces, rocking the fuck out. 

The only piece missing from the jigsaw, and it was a big piece, was the chance to take these new songs onto the stages they belonged and play them loud and direct to a rock music starved audience and thankfully, that time is finally here. Black Spiders have announced five UK shows to get back to doing what it is they do best, and to celebrate the special Record Store Day vinyl release of the album on the 17th July via Dark Riders Records. On top of this, Black Spiders have also released a new single, Give Em What They Want, that is taken from the album and launched into the stratosphere with a stomping, hook-laden infectious groove. 

“You’d think that after almost 2 years of what we’ve all been through, there was a chance to start again at a year zero for the human race, but no, same shit, different year, an aptly titled song for the times. However, we’ve been waiting SO long to do a gig and can’t wait to play the new album live and melt some faces…. thank fuck!” (singer/guitarist Pete Spiby)

Black Spiders self titled album is available on CD here and digitally via Bandcamp and
