SELF DEFENSE FAMILY BIO
The US-wide collective, who feature both a comic book writer and a podcast host in their ranks, are the countries finest purveyors of misanthropic, rough-around-the-edges indie rock, juxtaposing a no-fucks-given attitude with a clear taste for melody. The band were also recently announced as head support to Deathwish label-mates Touché Amoré on their upcoming December UK and EU tour, with dates listed below.
GOODTIME BOYS BIO
The phrase 'emotional hardcore' is bandied around a lot and it would be a disservice to apply the description to Wales-via Southampton quintet Goodtime Boys, who complete this twosome. True to the title of their song, this band deal in life-affirming heavy music, complete with soaring guitar-work and though-provoking lyrics. Guitarist Lewis Johns, known for his production work with Gnarwolves and Bastions among others, is once again behind the controls, mixing and mastering the release.
