Belfast risers Chalk have signed to Nice Swan Records and dropped their strident new single 'The Gate'
It follows on from their debut EP, released earlier this year.
It's their first for Nice Swan Records, and follows the release of their debut EP 'Conditions' earlier this year.
Frontman Ross Cullen says: “‘The Gate’ is a song about the pressures that surround you. The first musical part that was written was the ending, which is an ode to ‘Come to Daddy’ by Aphex Twin. I wanted to create a track inspired by Locked Club or Mica Levi, something that had a type of deranged percussion playing at a 1/16 rate.
Check it out below, and catch the band live at the following:

09 Trans Musicales, Rennes, FRA
