Last year\u2019s <em>What Lucy Found There<\/em> was to be their breakthrough, securing attention for the band from the likes of The Quietus, NME, So Young, BBC 6 Music and more.<br><br>Recently celebrating their 100th gig, this November the band truly come of age with\u00a0their debut EP landing on the indie taste-maker label Fat Possum Records. Recorded with Gilla Band\u2019s Daniel Fox at Echo Zoo studio in\u00a0Eastbourne, the group present us with cinematic arrangements, mauled by moments of cacophony; the band\u2019s Billy Ward says of their writing process, \u201c<em>we thrive on the thin line between pretty and noisy, often trying to jump between the two &#8211; it\u2019s that chaos that excites us.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_3516.jpeg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_3516.jpeg?resize=800%2C800\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40984\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_3516.jpeg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_3516.jpeg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_3516.jpeg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_3516.jpeg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018<strong>Eazy Peazy\u2019 track listing<br><\/strong>Listen\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/prescriptionpr.cmail20.com\/t\/j-l-ghhtkjy-ejlihlkhu-f\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1.
