With members being firm friends from birth, there is an instinctive understanding of movement and danceability to their music worth its weight in gold, whilst never cheapening the nuance and grit of their sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, they\u2019ve shared new single <em>Binge<\/em> which follows breakout tracks <em>Hero<\/em>, <em>Pop Culture Connoisseur<\/em>, and <em>Fit For Work<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Binge<\/em> was musically spawned from the depths of a long London winter, with little sunlight and little joy. It is the sound of various excesses cyclically incubating then emerging in a world geared towards constant satiation of desire, but with a hungry black hole at its centre which seems to only grow the more it is fed. Whether through devotion to a deity or stamp collecting, as humans we are all desperate to feed the emptiness festering at the intersection of sentience and instinct. Thus, we binge.

Using our usual formula of \u201cdrumbeat, bassline, lyrics, seasoning\u201d it was quickly realised that we had to include it in our coming live shows and record it without further ado. Sometimes the energy of a track\u2019s just there, you don\u2019t have to think about it for a year.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zac adds,&nbsp;<em>\u201cHearing the word Binge, we may initially be drawn to a very specific image or thought of a person or a habit, however when we take a closer look at society it can be realised that bingeing is inherent within our behaviour as human beings. Whether it be something as mundane as collecting stamps, or devotion of your existence to a deity, we are all bingers through and through and, ultimately, life is one long binge.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Already they have been championed by The Guardian, So Young, HERO, Loud &amp; Quiet, they supported Tropical F*ck Storm on their UK tour, and the 6 piece even took to Paris Fashion Week, attending the CELINE menswear S\/S 23 launch and playing live at Hedi Slimane\u2019s personal afterparty alongside NYC\u2019s Gustaf and Cumgirl8.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They\u2019re currently on the Revive Live Music Venue Trust x National Lottery tour where they were hand chosen by Steve Lamacq, and are set to perform at Reading &amp; Leeds Festival next week, plus a tour next month, including a sold out date supporting Yard Act in Hull.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tour dates<\/strong><br>20th August\u00a0&#8211; The Star Inn, Guilford (Music Venue Trust Tour)<br>21st August\u00a0&#8211; Beautiful Days Festival, Devon<br>23rd August\u00a0&#8211; Duffy\u2019s, Leicester (Music Venue Trust Tour)<br>24th August\u00a0&#8211; Elsewhere, Margate (Music Venue Trust Tour)<br>25th August\u00a0&#8211; The Grain, Frome (Music Venue Trust Tour)<br>27th August\u00a0&#8211; Reading Festival<br>28th August\u00a0&#8211; Leeds Festival<br>16th September\u00a0&#8211; Head Of Stream, Newcastle<br>17th September\u00a0&#8211; The Flying Duck, Glasgow<br>18th September\u00a0&#8211; Bootleg Social, Blackpool<br>20th September\u00a0&#8211; Sidney and Matilda, Sheffield<br>21st September\u00a0&#8211; Oporto, Leeds<br>22nd September\u00a0&#8211; The Castle Hotel, Manchester<br>23rd September\u00a0&#8211; Polar Bear, Hull (Supporting Yard Act) SOLD OUT<br>24th September\u00a0&#8211; Dead Wax, Birmingham<br>26th September\u00a0&#8211; Hope &amp; Ruin, Brighton<br>27th September\u00a0&#8211; Crofters Rights, Bristol<br>28th September\u00a0&#8211; 100 Club, London<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tickets available\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/prescriptionpr.cmail19.com\/t\/j-l-vtjtkdk-ejlihlkhu-k\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Hailing from Yorkshire, now South London rooted,\u00a0DEADLETTER\u00a0channel the droll fury of Gang of Four and the lopsided rhythms of Talking Heads into a strain of <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=38357\" title=\"DEADLETTER return with new single \u2018Binge\u2019\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":38358,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[22,23,25,28,29,30,1907],"tags":[10891,9475,1245],"class_list":["post-38357","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-guitar-rock","category-indie","category-live","category-music","category-music-video","category-new-release","category-news","tag-binge","tag-deadletter","tag-tour-dates"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/BC68989E-27D3-4955-B0C2-B29F988C863E.png?fit=714%2C470&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2B2TV-9YF","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":34896,"url":"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=34896","url_meta":{"origin":38357,"position":0},"title":"DEADLETTER share \u2018Fit For Work\u2019","author":"cultureaddicts","date":"September 16, 2020","format":false,"excerpt":"Hailing from Yorkshire via South London,\u00a0DEADLETTER\u00a0channel\u00a0the droll fury of The Fall and the lopsided rhythm of Gang of Four into a strain of vehement post-punk,\u00a0exploring\u00a0the darker side of existence through a lens of narrative-driven levity.
