Liverpool¹s Screaming Lights have announced details of the release of their debut album.

'Like Angels' will be released through Anti on Monday 5th October 2009. The
tracklisting for the 11-track album is as follows:

1. Volts
2. 21st Century
3. Hello Tomorrow
4. Rainmaker
5. Exit Wound
6. Air In A Lung
7. Champagne Socialist
8. Princess
9. Anymore
10. Glow
11. Butterflies

Recorded with Dan Grech at the Hospital Studio in London¹s Covent Garden and
Parr Street in Liverpool during the Spring of '09, the album will be
preceded by a single, 'Hello Tomorrow', which will released on September
28th.

The band have also announced a headline tour in October. The full list of dates are as follows:

OCTOBER
5th Cardiff 10 Feet Tall
6th Kidderminster Tap House
7th Reading Oakford Arms
8th Newcastle World Headquarters
9th Glasgow King Tuts
10th Wakefield Escobar

Gloriously out-of-step and isolated from many of their contemporaries,
Screaming Lights are very much a product of their home-town. Steeped in that
time-honoured Scouse tradition of forward-thinking, bloody-minded
psychedelia, 'Like Angels' shares a fair bit with the likes of fellow Mersey
pop-pranksters such as The Teardrops or The Bunnymen.

Very adventurous yet still anchored in that classic Liverpudlian
song-writing tradition, the 11-tracks of the album sound far more
accomplished then one would expect on a debut album from band just out of
school. A truly innovative and exciting debut.

Screaming Lights are: Alan Breen (bass), James Connor (drums), Max Goldberg
(guitar) & James Treadell (vocals / guitar).
