Hot Milk announce new EP ‘The King And Queen Of Gasoline’
HOT MILK have announced a new EP!
Titled The King And Queen Of Gasoline, the upcoming EP from the Manchester-based alternative band is the follow-up to last year’s I Just Wanna Know What Happens When I’m Dead EP, and is scheduled to be released in August this year, via Music For Nations.
Speaking about the upcoming EP, vocalist/guitarist Jim Shaw says, “we wanted to personify this feeling of oppression and give it a face, the bunny cult you’ll see visually throughout the record gives us something to rage at.” Vocalist/guitarist Han Mee adds, “the record has come straight from our veins, written and produced by us in a bedroom in Salford. This has been a labour of love, almost hate and therapy all in one. Through this record we want to create an intentional space where liberation and the ability to be free of expectation can be lived. We are The King And Queen Of Gasoline. The best at nearly ruining it all, fucking up and everything nearly going up in flames.”
Alongside the announcement of the new EP, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming EP; Bad Influence. Speaking about the new song, Han Mee says, “we’ve been told we’ve been a bad influence since we were kids, so u know what, maybe we are? but it’s only coz we have a thirst for life n go against the traditional.” Jim Shaw continues, “we were made to feel bad for following the our hearts n our passion, we got ousted by family and by peers for being who we are. We know where we’re going and what we want and it’s to be open, happy and live fast n free.”
