Pull In Emergency announce details of a brand new single, The Problem / Backfoot, and UK dates in October 2010. The UK tour begins on 24 Oct in Bristol and the dates include a London show at the Borderline on 31 October (full details below, note: London date change)
The Problem / Backfoot, out on 8 November, is the latest to be taken from the band’s self titled debut album: a consistently impressive mixed bag of tricks, one that’s the product of a group who are constantly evolving and consistently hitting the nail of guitar pop greatness and giddy lovestruck rock square on the head. Pull In Emergency features previous singles Everything Is The Same and 15 Years
Produced by Gordon Raphael (The Strokes, Regina Spektor), the album features recent singles features previous singles Everything Is The Same and 15 Years. Pull In Emergency offer up a debut full of love, lust, glee and anger. The ten track collection sees the band move from a jangly indie combo into a grittier, fuzzier proposition, though their collective ear for a catchy melody is still impeccably well tuned. “At this stage we all agree on the direction we want to follow – it’s largely based on 1990s American indie rock but with a bit of Pullinemergency-isation. It’s a style that is probably the most fun to play – and see – live and that’s a big reason for the change,” explains Frankie.
