A hot, steaming new pile of Half is out today. Give Them The Girl; thumb it into yr lugs, however you see fit.

The death of Hot Snakes frontman Rick Froberg in 2023 was the impetus for writing Give Them The Girl. We've always stolen wholesale from Hot Snakes in Other Half, but this time we wanted the full bank heist.

It’s got the two-kit assault of Salton City, it’s got the effing melodica of I Hate The Kids, I have no idea what the actual guitar terminology is, but it’s also got the nasty-to-nice chord progressions that make them the world’s best band. Does this now make us the world’s best band? No, I can’t play 3 downstrokes without having a sit down, but I hope Give Them The Girl is a fitting tribute to the last true agents of misrule that were left on this sad little planet. 

Talking of sad little things, lyrically GTTG concerns the saddest of all little things, a man writing rock songs. Chiefly, this man, and my quasi-serious insecurities that everyone has had enough of my druggy bloke-core schtick and Other Half would be a much better band if Soapy sang the songs. The catch? The sad little man’s ego simply won’t allow for that, so it’s druggy bloke-core on infinity, baby. This is all fairly tongue-in-cheek stuff, but the irony wasn’t lost on me when I told Soapy what I wanted her to sing on a song about men telling women what to sing. I am but a pig.

Anyway, hope ya enjoy it, and come see us on tour with @loscampesinos next week. There's still tickets left for Norwich, if you're yet to visit our fine city.

Lots 'o' love,
Other Half xo

1000 likes and Tall Ships reform.

£1m and Shoes And Socks Off does too.

Glen’s just happy about new @deltasleepband and @thebandpancho music released this month

We knew we had to release this @thebandpancho EP the moment we heard it

Featuring members of @deltasleepband and @ttng.uk , and with artwork by @bureaudefatigue of Meet Me In St Louis / Shoes And Socks Off fame, could it be more BSM coded? 

If you’re a fan of any of the above bands, math rock, Dischord Records or just checking out great new music, you need to be all over this. 

The EP’s officially released on 3rd July but you can pre-order the super limited edition blue/red half and half vinyl now (only 300 copies in the world!) AND, cos the band are really nice, download the full record from their Bandcamp right now

They play our Alt Escape showcase next week along with the absolutely stacked @quietstepsfest in Leeds on 18th July alongside Braid, Faraquet, Hey Mercedes, Crash of Rhinos, Tangled Hair, Pennines, Love Rarely and loads more.
