Tuesday, 03 October 2017
Written by Laura Johnson
VANT are going on an indefinite hiatus.
The London band, who put out their debut album, 'Dumb Blood', at the beginning of the year, will also accompany the final dates on their Last Days of Punk tour with a new mini album, 'Talk Like Thunder'.
Jump is the first track to be shared from the upcoming record. Check it out below, along with the full statement the band posted on their Facebook page.
"Hello.
We are VANT from Planet Earth.
Some of you were right to question the title of our upcoming tour ‘The Last Days Of Punk’. We can now officially reveal that we are going on an indefinite hiatus.
We wanted to end this part of our journey where we began, in tiny venues, in often over-looked towns. We came from those places (Seaham, Poulton-le-Fylde, Sandy Lane, Bensham) and when a band played anywhere near us, whoever they may have been, we were grateful and elated. They were the bands that made us want to make music in the first place. They showed us it was possible. It seems apt for us to return the favour one last time before we depart to explore other musical worlds for a while.
To accompany these final dates we will be releasing a mini album entitled ‘TALK LIKE THUNDER’ on our own label DUMB BLOOD RECORDS. We will be streaming the penultimate track ‘JUMP’ for the next few days. The rest will follow soon.
TALK LIKE THUNDER
1. TALK LIKE THUNDER
2. AMERICA
3. *INSERT HERE*
4. CORPORATE WHORE
5. JUMP
6. BEETLEBUM
Thanks for the support over the last couple of years, it truly has meant everything to us.
We’ve had the best time of our lives, so far.
Peace and love mother fuckers.
Goodnight.
Mattie, Henry, Billy & Greenie
