Wet Nuns release new single 'Hanging' ahead of self-titled debut album
They started the year with an earth-shattering bang, and now everyone’s favourite death-blues duo Wet Nuns are set to unleash the new track ‘Hanging’ on September 15th, ahead of their self-titled debut album release and a UK headline tour this October.
2012 was a landmark year for Sheffield’s ‘favourite sons’ that saw them win supporters across the board from the likes of BBC Radio 1’s Huw Stephens, Arctic Monkey’s Matt Helders, The Independent, The Guardian, Q, Clash, NME, Kerrang!, XFM, as well as taking home the gong for ‘Video of the Year’ at the Artrocker Awards and performing at both Reading and Leeds Festivals.
The hell-raising pair showed no signs of slowing down earlier this year with the release of their critically acclaimed debut EP ‘Broken Teeth’, festival dates across the country, appearances at SXSW and New York Sound City, and the sold out success of their very own festival, the affectionately-titled Detestival.
Now the ‘Gruesome Twosome’ are back and better than ever with their trademark deep-fried brand of bone-churning riffs and ear-bursting drums as they prepare to travel the country preaching the gospel according to Wet Nuns (which admittedly mostly centres around ‘women, death and beer’).
Their hugely anticipated self-titled debut album, recorded with Ross Orton (Arctic Monkeys, MIA, The Kills), is also set to land this October.
After many weeks of negotiating and brainstorming, the following album titles were shelved; ‘In Da House’, Nashville Nostalgia, Happy Girthday, Flatcap Lumberjack and the Catflap Flapjacks, Huangpu River Dead Pigs, Spitbubble Cathedral, Vibed Cubed, Groovy Sauna, Greatest Wets, and finally Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit.
With none of those working out, Wet Nuns self-titled full-length album is due to be released on October 7th on their own label, Throng Of Nobs, on vinyl, CD and digital download. The new single ‘Hanging’ will be released as a digital download single on September 15th 2013.
