Party: Spook School + ChorusGirl + Joyce Delaney

The Spook School return with their brand new album, Try To Be Hopeful. Fun and empowering, Try To Be Hopeful is brim full of noisy, tuneful and triumphant queer pop songs about identity, sexuality and being awesome. Since forming in 2012 they’ve become increasingly involved with the DIY queer punk scene, taking inspiration from the passionate, like-minded people they’ve met along the way, and from bands such as Martha, Joanna Gruesome, Trust Fund and Tuff Love. Citing influences including Buzzcocks, T-Rex and the noisier end of C86, the new album is louder, bolder, fuller-sounding and captures more of their live sound—aided and abetted by producer MJ of Hookworms.

CHORUSGIRL :

Chorusgirl are a London-based noisepop 4-piece that blend the shimmering dreaminess of 4AD bands like Lush, the noir pop of The Cure and the bittersweet electricity of The Breeders across songs that sparkle with melody and pop nous but are stealthily subverted by something darker. The lyrics are personal, delicate and angry, about losing and giving up, but all of that heartache and anger is layered underneath enough noisy rubble and fizz. They recently signed to Fortuna POP! to release their debut album 13th November.

“A shimmering brand of 4AD-inspired noir pop” Drowned in Sound

“’60s pop music distilled through a bit of new wave, and perhaps a dash of The Vaselines. If that doesn’t sound good to you, you can just fuck right off.” Overblown

“"jangle-influenced pop" that shook up British new wave with the free and easy mindset of west coast garage” Noisey
