I’ve been absolutely blown away by the response to the new album so far. It’s out in full on 30 October, but a second track, Heavy Industry, hit Bandcamp and streaming today.

The exclusive yellow colour variant sold out at Norman Records within hours of being announced, and the Castles In Space Bandcamp has also sold out of copies. A repress has been ordered (in a different colour variant for you collectors out there) and should hopefully be in stock soon.

As far as I can tell, it’s still in stock at UK independent record shops like Bleep, Rough Trade, Piccadilly Records, Resident Records and many more.

You can also join us on Bandcamp for a full Listening Party before the album comes out on 28 October at 7.30pm GMT. So, if you want a sneak preview and a behind-the-scenes chat, here’s your invite.

Your response on social media has been amazing - I’m glad you’re loving it. I’m equally thrilled with the press reviews coming in from Electronic Sound, Shindig, Rockerilla (if you’re in Italy), and upcoming reviews in Mojo and Uncut. Many thanks to you all!

I’ve only two more gigs in 2026, before embarking on a big our of the British Isles through April and May 2027.

On Sunday 15 November, I’ll be playing The Arena in Crewe with Lo Five and Music From A Cluttered Mind. This is a matinee show, doors at 1pm, first act at 2pm, and I’ll be on stage at about 4.45pm for roughly 90 minutes.

The other gig this year is a return to The Trades Club in Hebden Bridge on 27 November with Apta. This is a normal evening gig, but it has already sold out. Tickets may be available on the door on the night, but only if people don’t show up.

The 2027 Industrial Growth tour is adding dates, with a couple more still to announce. I’ll do a bigger post in a future newsletter, but tickets are available and selling fast. You can find the full list of confirmed and available live dates on my website below.

TTFN!
