Wallflower announce debut album ‘Teach Yourself To Swim’

WALLFLOWER have announced their debut album!

Titled Teach Yourself To Swim, the upcoming album from the band and is scheduled to be released in June.

The band’s craft is constantly evolving and this flow of creativity has led them to this year and the collection of tracks that make up Teach Yourself To Swim. The band draw upon more retro alternative influences, as well as having studied the art of the album through modern classics from PARAMORE’s Brand New Eyes to RADIOHEAD’s In Rainbows. The art of the LP is one that’s extremely important to the members of WALLFLOWER and they approached their own debut full length with great care and attention to craft something extremely exciting, personal and true.

Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming debut; titled Hungry Eyes.

Speaking of the track, vocalist and guitarist Vini Moreira-Yeoell says, “it’s probably one of the heaviest songs we’ve ever written. Where most of our songs are written around personal emotions we all experience as human beings, Hungry Eyes is much more politically driven and touches on subjects we believe affect all of us. In the last 10-15 years it very much feels like there has been a shift in the way we, as a human population, respond to current events. With some pretty horrific things happening all across the world, the general reaction can often be indifference and numbness. This song was easily one of the most challenging to perfect in the studio, being very intense in all aspects of the word. We have been very lucky to work with our good friend and producer Lewis Johns at The Ranch in Southampton on each of our releases and his persistence in getting the very best out of us enabled Hungry Eyes to get to where we envisioned it.”
