Savages, the Quietus’ favourite new band (trademark), will be repressing copies of their double A-side single. ‘Husbands’/’Flying to Berlin’ will be released on clear vinyl on August 6 via Pop Noire Records. Copies of the original pressing are now sold out, so you’ll need to be quick off the mark to get one of the new discs – have a listen to ‘Flying to Berlin’ below.
They’ve also added another London date to their current headline tour – they’ll be playing The Electrowerkz after hitting festivals across Europe throughout August and September.
