Sound the alarms! Incoming banger! Honeyblood have dropped the first track from their forthcoming album ‘Babes Never Die’, and it’s a corker.
‘Ready For The Magic’ is an instant, no-fucking-about rager, all sparky brilliance and hooks-on-top-of-hooks. Premiered by Annie Mac on BBC Radio 1 earlier tonight, it’s safe to say we’re ‘on board’.
‘Babes Never Die’ is set to drop on November 4th. You can pre-order it here. You should do that.
“The title is my own mantra,” frontwoman Stina explains. “I think it’s something I tell myself every day. Indifference is a plague. Giving up and turning a blind eye will be the end of us. Never before has that been more true.”
With two dates on the band’s forthcoming tour sold out, they’re also announcing a show this December at London’s Scala, with more to follow. You can catch them at:
