"We’re a band, we’re not a political party." Gurriers announce new album Nobody’s Coming To Save You, share title track, reveal UK and European tour plans
Irish band annouce follow-up to 2024's Come And See
Gurriers have announced details of their second album Nobody’s Coming To Save You, and shares the record's title track.
Recorded between Donegal’s Attica Studios and Holy Mountain Studios in London, the album - the Dublin quintet's first for new label Playt It Again Sam - was produced by Idles' guitarist Mark Bowen and Loren Humphrey, with engineering from Chris Fullard and mixing by John Congleton. It will be released on September 25.
Speaking about its newly-released title track, the group say, "It’s a song that feels hopeless on its first listen, but if you look at it more deeply it’s a call to action, no one is going to rise up if everyone expects someone else to do it. We all have to do our part in creating the change."
Referencing the fact that they've been criticised for issues-driven songwriting in the past, the group add, "We’re a band, we’re not a political party."
The tracklist for the record is:
1. Nobody’s Coming To Save You
2. Party Lines
3. Shades
4. Pins
5. Today Is Not Enough
6. Drones
7. Nothing Happens Twice
8. Waiting For Fisher
9. I Wish I Was
10. Crybaby
The quintet have also announced a major UK and European tour for later in the year.
