Following its debut last week on Huw Stephen’s show, one of our favourite new bands DOG IS DEAD have announced details of their next single ‘Two Devils’ out on March 5th through Atlantic Records. Produced by David Kosten (who worked with them on prior releases as well as with Bat for Lashes and Everything Everything), Rob from the band commented, ‘Two Devils’ is a tale of guilt and insanity stemming from a twisted relationship in which a girl falls sick. It’s a little dark.‘ It was recorded at RAK studios in London and was given its premier on the Bombay Bicycle Club tour. Their tour buddies have even remixed the single.
Over the next few months, the band will be trawling up and down the A1 playing headline shows in every crevice of the country so fans will have every opportunity to see the guys live in action. As part of the tour, DOG IS DEAD have also announced a London headline date at the Borderline in London on March 15th. They’ll also be playing HMV’s Next Big Thing show at London’s Garage supporting King Charles on February 7th. You’ll also be able to catch them supporting Cloud Control on February 17th at the Electric Ballroom.
