First review

First album review here: http://tinyurl.com/ygvq62e

"There is so much to enjoy in the thunder and rain of notes that I want to be your geeky friend pointing out all the great bits - now! now! This bit … hear it? But you can find them: there's one every eight bars at least. And the songs themselves are so strong that they could be done with a ukulele, never mind all this sturm und drang. This is a band on a rising creative surge with a very accomplished debut album."

9/10

We've had a video made for us by some seriously talented guys who go by the name of K House Media. This video is for the first single off the album called Sobotka which is about one of the central characters from the second series of The Wire.

It's a pretty fantastic video though is maybe not completely family friendly in a Sunday afternoon ITV rom-com kind of way.

So here it is...

ABLE ARCHER by I CONCUR
Released MONDAY NINETEENTH OCTOBER

Two years hard work, enough trips down the M1 to last a lifetime and five seasons of The Wire later, this is our debut album.

Produced in frosty Bridlington by James Kenosha (Grammatics, Duels) and released by London label Club AC30 (Swervedriver, Jenniferever), ABLE ARCHER is a collection of ten tall tales concerning lands severed by motorways, languages lost by ignorance and leaders taking lesser mortals to the brink of nuclear extinction.

ABLE ARCHER will be available to the reader in CD digipak form on MONDAY NINETEENTH OCTOBER. You’ll be able to purchase it from pretty much everywhere but if you want to pre-order it you can do so from -Club AC30-. You will receive a free MP3 of LUCKY JACK to chew on until the album arrives.

Chapters are as follows:
1) Iterate This
2) Sobotka
3) Grandeur
4) Lucky Jack
5) Able Archer
6) Build Around Me
7) Oblige
8) Your Words, Your Dialect
9) Decimal Places
10) Exits Are Blockades

As a prologue to the album we will also be releasing SOBOTKA as a single on Monday 5th October.

The track, penned following 12 intensive episodes of the second season of The Wire, will be available on 7” vinyl and iTunes download. It will also include b-side ITERATE THIS (EXTENDED VERSION). You can order that from -Club AC30- too.
