Velcro Hooks premiere new video on
Louder Than War
Debut album out 1st April on
Howling Owl Records

 

UK/Canadian hybrid four-piece Velcro Hooks will be releasing their self-titled debut album today,  1st April 2016 on Howling Owl Records.

Watch their new video for the single,
“Chinchilla Woman” on Louder Than War

Early hype around the band’s Gymnophoria EP, backed with now legendary pop-up shows in odd locations around Bristol, fizzed out as the band slipped back into the shadows to make a full-length record strictly on their own terms. Multiple all-night recording sessions in their homemade studio, fuelled by cheap Polish lager, almost destroyed them. “I’m surprised we’re still together”, half jokes drummer George.

However the smoke screen they created allowed the band to focus on the important things and they emerged into the half-light after a year and a day with their magnum opus; ten tracks bursting at the seams with chaos, urgency, paranoia and knife-edged romance, to add to their already explosive mix of off kilter, sprawling, hook-filled rock.

The word erratic doesn’t do justice to Velcro Hooks. There is no masterplan. There is no mission statement. Today there are only these ten astonishing tracks. These 42 minutes. The desperate sound of now.
