Conjured up during the pandemic, the Moseley-based quartet’s EP showcases their in-room sound.


Recorded live in a Black Country steel mill by Thom Edwards of local legends <a href="spotify:artist:3DHCLbhlfCHpcTj9V16zv6" data-name="God Damn">God Damn</a>, this raw session is an honest declaration of the writers’ inner consciousnesses.

Eluding to sensibilities born from bitter solitude whilst capturing the band’s playful edge, ‘Wasp Stings’ is reflective of the post-pandemic human condition.

Anchored by overarching themes of anxiety and rancorousness, this crude and unfiltered session is tinged with the tongue-in-cheek clamour of life’s many minor stings.
