Gallus announce debut album ‘We Don’t Like The People We’ve Become’
GALLUS have announced their debut album!
Titled We Don’t Like The People We’ve Become, the upcoming album from the Glasgow-based indie punk band is their debut full-length album, and is scheduled to be released in June this year, via Marshall Records.
“The album’s title is from Sickness and Health, which best sums up the album’s mood and theme,” comments guitarist/backing vocalist Eamon Ewins. “It’s a coming-of-age tale, but with quite a pessimistic spin. Everything gets worse, you get older, then you’re dead… It’s not all doom and self-pity though. We wanted the album to be a cathartic, self-deprecating and uplifting journey, and we hope that we’ve achieved just that. Hopefully we’ve learned how to crack a smile by album two.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Eye To Eye. The new song is the second single to be released from the upcoming debut album, following on from Are You Finished, which was released in August last year.
Speaking about the new song, Ewins says, “Eye To Eye was when I grew tired of the constant hoops I had to jump through when in search of a minimum wage job. Company values. Ethos. The cost of your own principles? The lowest wage a multimillion-pound company can get away with paying you. The song tries to express the frustration of having no autonomy or independence in the workplace. Shit work for shit wages, and you’ll do it with a smile.”
