O. – 176

The London-based duo of baritone saxophonist Joe Henwood and drummer Tash Keary – have shared a muscular new single titled “176”. The track is taken from their highly anticipated debut album “WeirdOs”, which was announced earlier this year and is due out 21st June via Speedy Wunderground.

Speaking on the single, the band say it was written “in tribute to the 176 night bus and the unpredictable journeys on board. Always a banger live, we feel like we’ve captured that heavy energy on record with some help from Dan Carey’s distortion machines.

Going on to speak about the album, the band says, “WeirdOs is a dark, heavy album based around our love of riffy basslines, blast beats, dub, noise, and all the weird sounds in between. It was recorded live across 2 weeks in the studio with Dan Carey and aims to replicate the feeling of being at one of our gigs.” This Is Pop? today’s song of the day is here for you.
