The Madrid-based punk rock power trio WILD ANIMALS, Epidemic Records and other great partner labels (BCore Disc, La Agonía de Vivir, Pifia Records, strictly no capital letters, Good Post Day Records, Inhumano, One Wild Collective, Dingleberry records and distribution, Discos Finu, Waterslide Records) are working together on a brand new release! The Spanish band has already gained much attention in Spain as well as in the rest of Europe and their previous release has sold out really fast. If you expect an average punk rock band, you’re totally wrong. These three WILD ANIMALS are able to deliver deep, full of energy and entertaining songs and at the same time give that “politically-aware/DIY” feeling that Epidemic Records truly loves and supports! This new album, called “Basements: Music To Fight Hypocrisy”, is a full step ahead from their previous work. Here’s a preview in the form of an amazing single “Sleepless Sundays”! Check it out below and catch them at this year’s Fluff Fest!
Epidemic Records further commented:
The album comes out on vinyl with an elegant gatefold cover and will be available at the end of May/beginning of June. Preorders will start around April 19th.
Wild Animals are also booking a European Tour for this summer and has already announced some shows, including an appearence at the awesome Fluff Fest, in Czech Republic.
Althought nothing provides a better description than putting a vinyl on your turntable, this band is definitely the next favorite band for fans of RVIVR, Hüsker Dü and Dinosaur Jr.
Welcome to the family, Wild Animals!
