New Social Club EP (For Dancing) up for pre-order
The last time an Alcopop! band nailed a full pager in Rocksound and Kerrang in the same week was back in those heddy days of 2009 with This City (though Jumping Ships did come super close) – so how we cheered as the respective rags dropped this week. Bang. Look at the lads in Rock Sound we mouthed as high fives slapped all around, and lo – there they are dressed as clowns in Kerrang. Lew is reaching for a tiny trumpet we tooted!
We’re still not entirely sure why… But with this magnificent news, we thought it was ride old time to announce the second in a strong trio of EPs dropped by The Social Club… The first was For Drinking, this one is For Dancing! Out on March 5th, and this bad boy is all available for pre-order right away… What’s more, 10 pre-orderers (picked at random) will win a personal dancing video from (the pictured) Paul Terris (aka Pauly von Keys – I just made that up)… Truly a money can’t buy experience.
So here’s that lovely Kerrang piece. And a bit of the new EP (for free download) just to whet your appetite…. Ladies and gentlemen, Somehwere Between the Rut and the Groove!
NB – as ever with PoP! you only pay postage once per order however much you buy, so if you’ve already preorderd GFT or FTA (which haven’t been despatched yet as they’re out in March) please set postage to MP3 so you don’t have to pay twice.
Alcopopular 5 NEEDS YOU!
Oh dear Poppers – I’m always asking things of you, but this one should be pretty fun. Basically we’re putting together a really rather splendid concept for our new compilation ‘Alcopopular 5′ (provisionally entitled The HitHikers Guide to the Galaxy) but we need some help from people who live in the following places (or vaguely nearby)… Can you help?
Sowerby Bridge,
Bournemouth,
Ascot,
Dublin,
Eastbourne,
Addlestone,
Lisburn,
Lewisham,
Brighton,
Birmingham
Basically, we’ve got songs from all these places on the compilation, but we want some form of creation from someone who has a connection there (live, go out, spent a big proportion of your life nearby) to be on the compilation and add even more depth to the sense and story of each location. (whether it be a photo, podcast, video, whatever). It’s all a bit vague, but I promise you it will be AWESOME when its all finished and out in May time – so if you could help we’d really appreciate it.
Just drop us a line at info@ilovealcopop.co.uk and lets have a chat.
We’re getting excited…
