The Glasgow quartet will release 'Ignore This' through LAB/Seeker records on April 5. Alongside the news, the band have also shared videos for their recently shared tracks About Love and COBRA, which both offer crunchy guitars, hook-driven synths and catchy vocals. The band's guitarist and lead composer Blair Crichton commented:
"As a band, we’ve experienced an awful lot of being ignored. We really don’t like that. So we set about making a debut LP so good that people had to pay attention. It’s a record that literally dares people to 'Ignore THIS...'".
Written, recorded and produced wholly by Crichton and his bandmates Anna Shields, Liam Adams and Euan Lyons, the album comprises 16 tracks that draw on a combination of influences, from bands like Wargasm, Vukovi, The Prodigy and Queens Of The Stone Age.
Shields added: "It’s about making music that appeals to people like us. A lot of things have changed for us over the last few years, but it’s arguably even more powerful seeing how we’ve stayed the same. That’s solidified my understanding of who our fans are: people who like good music, who aren’t in too much of a hurry to pigeonhole bands into categories, who don’t give a fuck about following trends.
"When I look into the crowd at our shows, I see people who remind me of myself as a teenager. Those are the people this music is for: the misfits who struggle to fit in anywhere else…"
