View fullsize We’ve had a lot of suggestions for what Ø means. Here are a few we like, some of the reasoning behind this is really creative! Very cool. invert null closed set them opposites phi island flip 🤍 📸 @boldizsarcr
View fullsize Our first tour since 2019 is onsale now! Feels very good to announce this after so long. Tickets via link in bio. We are working out adding more countries of course. You know we’re not shy of playing everywhere we can. 🤍
View fullsize So yesterday we surprise released our new EP. It was written and recorded just a few months ago so it’s been incredibly quick getting from our imaginations into your ears. We called it Ø because on the recording equipment we have, there’s a button with that sign on it. It means “invert”. It’s a flip switch. When you press the Ø button, negative becomes positive and positive becomes negative. As a band with a long history of not fitting in, of doing the opposite, of turning things on their head, that felt very right. So you can call it what you like, call it the opposites EP, call it zero, call it O, say it the correct way for Scandinavian languages that we have no idea how to pronounce. We like that it’s not defined and it’s not one clear thing. We also like that we made it difficult on purpose. For us, the music represents a side of us that’s always been there but not often visible. Our dark side. Our evil side. The stuff
View fullsize SURPRISE 🤍 Here’s a whole new EP 🤍 And a new video 🤍 And a stack of new tour dates. We didn’t feel like doing a long drip-feed build up, so here it is all at once, a new 6 track EP, called Ø, written, produced and mixed entirely by us just a few months ago. It’s streaming everywhere now, plus we shot a video for the song MISERY LOVES COMPANY with @boldizsarcr. The tour is UK / Europe / Russia for now, and tickets go onsale on Wednesday. If you order some of the cool limited vinyl / cassette / CD please just know that we will get them to you as fast as possible, the factories are haywire from recent events and are very behind, so we’re in a queue. But you should defo order some because they are very cool. And as soon as they come out of the factory, you’ll have them. There’s a lot more to be said but for now just go have a listen Love, The loudest smallest weirdest gang in the world. 🤍

View fullsize Imagine seeing the world through the eyes of a stalker, a killer, a narcissistic psychopath who pursues victims with a deranged sense of self-importance, like the victim loves you and needs you and owes you something. But the truth is: they don’t even know who you are. Not yet, anyway. You didn’t think we would write a regular love song did you? A LITTLE LOVE is out now. 🤍

View fullsize We don’t know who took this photo but maybe it was at @pukkelpop one summer. We always enjoy when we get to play festivals, not just because we love playing but because we also love seeing other bands and getting inspired / seeing friends you only see on the road. During this era I think we played 9 months of the year and probably destroyed our livers but have ever lasting tour stories that never fail to amaze. They say what goes on tour stays on tour but maybe we will share all the crazy shit that has happened to us one day. Until then.....04/06/21
View fullsize In case anyone ever doubted our Twin Peaks level of fandom, we found these shots in the archives from 2010 around the Fire Like This era. So the first day we landed for our first ever US tour, we flew in to Seattle. and we knew Seattle was near Snoqualmie Falls, where a lot of twin peaks was shot. So instead of rehearsing, or dealing with jetlag, or doing press interviews, or anything we probably should have been doing, we paid our sound guy for a day to drive us out all across the Pacific Northwest to all the locations from the show. These pics show us at the Snoqualmie Falls waterfall which is from the opening sequence of the show. Pretty sure that right after this we went for coffee and cherry pie at the double R diner and spent a lot of time watching the traffic lights outside flap about in the breeze. Lastly - you may have noticed the song “It Is Happening Again” is a quote from the giant in Twin Peaks. But also the whole album title Fire Like This is a reference
