Hookworms have announced a new album.
'Microshift', the follow up to 'The Hum', will arrive on February 2. It was written and recorded following a full rebuild of the band’s Suburban Home Studio in Leeds which was devastatingly flooded in the winter of 2015.
Check out the album's first single, Negative Space, as well as its artwork and tracklist, below. Speaking about it, MJ Said:
“All of our records are to an extent about mental health. Largely this is an album about loss but also about maturing, accepting your flaws and the transience of intimacy.”
'Microshift' tracklist:
Negative Space
Static Resistance
Ullswater
The Soft Season
Opener
Each Time We Pass
Boxing Day
Reunion
Shortcomings
The band will make their return to the live circuit later this month with a show at Hebden Bridge Trades Club and next month a stop at Leeds' Brudenell Social Club.
