HMLTD announce debut album 'West Of Eden'

After returning last month to unveil their long-awaited comeback single 'Loaded', HMLTD have now announced their plans for their debut studio album, arriving early next year.

The new full-length 'West Of Eden' is being described as "a daring collection of songs created to incite conversation about proposed new visions of masculinity, the decadence of western capitalism and the violence of insecurity and repression", is being previewed by the new single 'The West Is Dead, and is expected to be released on the 7th February via Lucky Number Records.

Speaking about their latest offering, frontman Henry Spychalski said, “This is not dystopia, but a mirror up to late capitalism; where we are and where we’re headed. Sick dolphins lap at the tide, the insects have all dropped from the skies and the global economy enters free fall. Ecological catastrophe guaranteed. The West is dead. Atomised, alienated and apathetic”
