Blaenavon return with new single 'Catatonic Skinbag'

Having spent the majority of last year recovering from what was a very stressful 2017 for the trio, Blaenavon have returned with a new single and news of a new album on the horizon.

The new track 'Catatonic Skinbag' sees the three-piece back on stellar form, and is set to appear on the band's next studio LP 'Everything That Makes You Happy', which is set to arrive later this year.

Speaking about the new single, frontman Ben Gregory said, “The song is about isolation. Cutting oneself off from the world to engage in fruitless sensual pleasures and pretending everything is ok. Watching fucking Netflix and drinking a bottle of wine when you should probably instead be in therapy. But there’s a way out. Art, friendship, love. You don’t have to be a catatonic skinbag. Lol.”
