Mush have returned with a new single, 'Get On Yer Soapbox'

Mush have returned with a new single, 'Get On Yer Soapbox'.

The track comes alongside news of the band's third album in as many years, 'Down Tools', which is set to land on 8th July via Memphis Industries.

'Get On yer Soapbox' follows on from previous singles 'Alternative Facts' and 'Gig Economy' in previewing the album, which was recorded in Leeds at Greenmount Studios with long-term collaborators, Lee Smith and Jamie Lockhart (Yard Act, Easy Life, Cribs).

The band's Dan Hyndman explains: “Going into Greenmount was like returning to a childhood home, it’s great re-connecting with Lee and Jamie. They let us do whatever we want within reason, we have fun and you kind of forget they are actually both amazing at what they do. So much of the guitar had to be improvised in the studio which was stressful but also intrinsic to creating the non-linear vibe of some of the stranger tracks”.

"'Get On Yer Soapbox’ is a righteous wig-out number, like 'Alternative Facts' but with more cowbell," he continues. "All the solos are improvised and I very much doubt I will ever be able to recreate them live, you can hear the track going off the rails which is something I’ve found exciting on records. Lyrically again it’s a kind of re-purposing of an old idiom which I like to do. Generally being ‘on your soapbox’ is considered to be a bit of a slur but I think a bit of self-righteousness is warranted from time to time, especially with the shower of shite we're dealing with”.
