Couple of bits
It's a Friday afternoon, you're probably bored and watching the clock, so here's a couple of things for you to read before the weekend starts.
SoundsXP get the prize for being the first website to review the new album. They reckon it's 'a magnificent collection of crafted, off-kilter songs that fit no known mould.' Read the review, which shockingly accuses us of laziness, a charge I would refute if I could be bothered,here.
And a very nice chap from Russia interviewed us recently. The resulting article is here. Or you can read Google's amusingly inept English translation of it here. Sample quote: 'Smokers Die Younger three years ago, aggressively making their debut with their distinctive longpleem "X Wants the Meat".'
Those of you who have tickets for the gig later, see you there. Those who don't, sorry, it's completely sold out. But we will be playing in Sheffield again soon. Next month in fact.
have a good weekend,
SDY

Album launch
Thanks to everyone who's downloaded Smokers Die Younger oniTunes so far.
We're launching the album with a gig slash party this Friday in a secret venue in Sheffield. Numbers are strictly limited, but if you wanna go, you need an advance ticket from here. It's £3.50, and you'll receive an email telling you where the gig's happening.
Then just turn up on Friday night, with your ticket number and refreshments of your choice. Oh yeah - it's a BYOB affair. So you can save your money for the album. There'll be a small quantity of physical copies for sale on the night.

Exciting guest drummer!
As our regular drummer Neil is going to be touring the USA with his other band Champion Kickboxer, at our next gig we'll be playing with Rob from 65daysofstatic. Rob's an amazing drummer, as anyone who's seen him play with 65days will attest, so we're dead excited about this.
Rehearsals are already underway, ready for the gig which is at theHarley in Sheffield on Wednesday 30 July.
