I thought I'd start posting all this business in one place in order to avoid clogging up the forum. A few bits of big news from my band Thank...

We just signed with Big Scary Monsters, an important label for each of the four of us as teenagers and the current home of American Football (at least here in the UK).

We also just signed with Just Another Music Co, which should mean some big festivals and big support slots for 2025. This isn't confirmed yet and I'm not sure if I'm supposed to tell anyone, but there's a very good chance we'll be going on tour with a band who's name rhymes with Shmee Shmoh Shmees.

Album two is due out in November, with three singles due in the meantime. The first one of those is below...

International shipping, yikes....makes a $33 album $56. Was about to ask if anyone else in the states wanted a copy to see if maybe we could make it cheaper by splitting them up and going USPS media mail once they're stateside.

To ship 5 copies is $79 :shock:

You could get them shipped to one of us UKers and then we can onwards ship to you, but it's still going to cost about £40 or more to get them to the US.

The label is organising international distro, so I imagine there will be a cheaper way for you to buy it than ordering directly through Bandcamp. Let me find out what the craic is for the US!

Yep, supporting Future of the Left at The Fleece on the 17th of November. It's sold out already but I might be able to swing some guest list spots if you fancy it!
