With two limited edition single releases already under their belts and after a long stint in a studio, The Chapman Family have been meticulously crafting and recording their long awaited debut album and new single 'All Fall'.
Their hiatus from releasing music and putting all their energies into this album has strained relationships, triggered bouts of depression and near caused bankruptcy but the stop/start nature of the bands short, but successful career so far is due to a strong belief that their debut album has to be perfect.
“We genuinely don't see the point in releasing an album that is half-arsed or rushed, we want it to come out all guns blazing.” Says vocalist Kingsley Chapman. “We're not, and never have been, a "fashionable band" so it's not like we needed to hurry and record in order to jump on the Mumfordisation of popular (allegedly) alternative music bandwagon that's currently rumbling along at a mediocre yet public pleasing pace.”
The fruits of the band's hard labour are evident in their new track 'All Fall', a trademark white noise-fuelled Chapman Family anthem that unleashes a modern art-punk sing-along when you least expect it. Together they cook up a firestorm of feedback drenched punk with the dynamics of a fucked up Joy Division, the intensity of The Fall and the discordance of Shellac.
The b-side to 'All Fall' - 'All That's Left To Break' is available only on the limited edition 7" vinyl of the single, or when you sign your life away at www.thechapmanfamilyisnotacult.com
