Blaenavon have dropped a new EP.
‘Prague ’99’ is built around the band’s track of the same name, alongside three new recordings: ‘The Monte Carlo Kid’, ‘A Death in the Family’ and ’12’. It follows on from debut album ‘That’s Your Lot’, released back in April.
Ben explains: “‘Prague ’99’ is the people’s choice. Whenever we play it – whether amazingly or shite, to thousands or to no-one, it feels important. It’s been a game-changer for us and for the people that care about our music.
“In the 3 b-sides we’ve offered you an insight into our diversity. ‘The Monte Carlo Kid’ is spritely, ridiculous, but still a humungous tune. ‘A Death in the Family’ is an old fan favourite that meant too much to us to let slip away, whilst ’12’ is the saddest song I’ll ever write. A true fuck my life. Enjoy.”
Blaenavon play Reading & Leeds later this month, followed by a UK tour in November.
