about

Norwich alt/noise-rock band Eat Your Own Head are pleased to announce their return with news of their forthcoming new EP The Trawler, set for release on 31st May 2024 via Drongo Records.

Laid down in sessions during Nov/Dec 2023 by producer David Vickers, mixed by Mikey Shaw, and mastered by Katie Tavini, the EP was recorded at Bomb Store Studio, nestled in the atomic bomb store and servicing facility on Thetford Heath—one of the two central stores built in the mid-1950s to coincide with the deployment by the RAF of its first operational atomic bomb, codenamed `Blue Danube'.

To celebrate the news, the band have revealed lead single ‘Chest Pains’ which is out now—a sledgehammer of a first offering that lifts back the curtain on the band’s constant poking and prodding of the darkest, most thrilling corners of the world of heavy music.

Wracked with a simmering tension, the opening track from the EP takes no hostages, punching through with a relentless intensity—the hook ‘you stitched me up, but I’m alright with it’ summarising the bluntness and wry humour of Eat Your Own Head at their best.

‘Chest Pains’ is a caustic song of self-criticism, sneering at its creators' lack of ability to control their vices. In the words of guitarist Jordan Woolnough, "we wanted to make something sludgy and punchy, an angular riff that feels uncomfortable but simultaneously great for head banging."

Eat Your Own Head count themselves as one of the bands spearheading a new wave of heavy music, redefining the UK rock scene. Known for their unpredictable twists and turns, the band veer from floor stomping riffs to tender moments of dark tranquillity. Centred around an organic approach to creating their music, their lyrics tap into the struggles of navigating modern life in 2024.
