Skelocrats will return with a new album Bella Bella later this month with a stronger melodic swing to their music. In January ‘Lyin’ Eyes‘ gave us our first preview and ‘Zirconium Heart’ further cements it which the band say is akin “new-wavey robo-pop that manages to evoke both Talking Heads and a Eurovision entry from another dimension”.
Bobby Aherne of No Monster Club, who himself had an excellent video yesterday made a video for the track which centres on a lo-fi robot/human Blind-Date style TV show.
Tour dates
17th April, Bello Bar, Dublin (Bella Bella launch party with Ginnels and Switzerland)
9th May, Sweeney’s, Dublin w/ Cruising and Cave Ghosts
14th May, Roisin Dubh, Galway w/ Paddy Hanna
