Description:

Squid, one of the hottest bands in the next generation of the UK rock scene, has just released their debut album! Formed in Brighton, England in 2015 while still in college, Squid consists of Ollie Judge (drums & lead vocals), Luis Boales (guitar & vocals), Arthur Redbetter (keyboards, strings, percussion), Rory Nancaivel (bass & brass), and Anton Pearson (guitar & vocals). The band was nominated for the BBC's Sound of 2020, which has produced top stars such as Adele, Sam Smith, and Haim, and their surprise signing to Warp was also a big hit. The band's debut album, "Bright Green Field," is out now. Produced by Dan Carey, the man behind the indie scene that has made Franz Ferdinand's breakthrough, recently discovered Black Midi and Fonteynes D.C., and is now creating a huge movement in the UK, "Bright Green Field" is a work of unfathomable scale and ambition. The band's DIY experimental spirit is on full display, with field recordings of environmental and natural sounds, as well as the participation of Black Country New Road saxophonist Lewis Evans, who is at the center of the booming scene. The sound, with its tensions and relaxations, travels a winding and unpredictable path, combining the uncertainty of the world with a curiosity for exploration.Recorded in a kind of frenzy in a basement studio in London run by Carey during a heat wave, with the air conditioning turned off to avoid noise, the album shows the young band burning hot, playing music with intense energy and emotion. Imported analog versions of the album are available in standard and limited green vinyl editions.
