Irish post-punk band are teasing another track ahead of their debut album Come and See, out September 13th on No Filter.
‘Top Of The Bill’ is a new studio version of a song previously released, “a distorted love story, a warning to myself of a person I could have been,” says singer Dan Hoff.
The video accompanying it is by upcoming Dublin director Adam Hart, and shot in at The Workman’s Cellar in Dublin, and features a cameo from Dublin rapper Mango along with a cast of lads being gurriers and the band themselves.
“It’s a one shot film. I think the buzzword for the band was Twin Peaks as the lads are huge fans, but apart from that there are a few Shane Meadows tropes in there too, showing small vignettes of characters that populate the world of the bar. There’s a lot of moving parts in the video so I was worried we’d miss a character, or piece of action, or we’d spend all day and have 50 takes before we got what we wanted. I think we only shot 12 takes in total, which is a credit to the crew and actors who played a blinder.”

14 November – Kasbah Social Club, Limerick
21 November – Ulster Sports Club, Belfast
22 November – Mike the Pies, Listowel, Co. Kerry
