DIY four-piece share video for 'Begging' from their new mini-album

London DIY punk four-piece today release a new mini-album called VINYL01 on Tim Burgess’ O Genesis Recordings label, and above, you can watch the video for ‘Begging’ taken from the record.

The band signed to Tim Burgess’ label in late 2015 for the release of their first EP, and this is their second release for the label. "They’re sort of about trying to wish someone out of a coma and will them back to life," says lead singer Camille of the tracks featured on the record. "Within that though, they’re also written about the trauma of break ups and I’m perpetually preoccupied with this idea of waiting for something to happen and getting what you want."

The record was recorded in two parts; one with Tim Burgess and Jim Spencer at The Charlatans’ Big Mushroom studio in Cheshire, and the other at Bark Studios with Toby Kidd, the band ultimately coming away with the seven tracks that make up this record.

You can purchase the record here. You can catch the band live at London’s Shacklewell Arms (April 5), London’s Finborough Arms (April 28) and The Lowry in Salford (May 26), as well as Kendal Calling in July.
