MOULD have announced their second EP ‘Almost Feels Like Purpose’, set for release on 24th April via 5dB Records. The Bristol power trio have also shared new single ‘SNAILS’.
The EP, recorded at Bristol’s Humm Studios last summer, follows the band’s autumn single ‘CHUNKS’. The new track sees frontman Joe Sherrin drawing inspiration from Dave Berman and Nick Cave, with lyrics personifying dissatisfaction.
“‘SNAILS’ is about one giant friendly snail who eats everyone’s gardens but no one minds because he’s so friendly until one day he chews through the Lord mayor’s conservatory and is sentenced to death. Can the town come together to free him? To be continued…
“It’s probably my favourite off the new EP. It has a big, poppy chorus that I’m chuffed with, it came out sounding banging straight away, credit to Dom at Humm Studios there. He thought I was singing “feed me mayonnaise” in the verse. Just want to be clear here, this isn’t a song about mayonnaise. It’s about Snails.””
