Words: Ellie Ward
Yorkshire's finest (after the tea!) Avalanche Party, have announced the release of their debut album.
'24 Carat Diamond Trephine’ will arrive on November 22 on limited edition vinyl .
Ahead of release, the band unveil new track, the record opener, ‘El Dorado’. Something of a low-key puzzler this, sounding more like Nick Cave than the usual glorious, raucous mayhem the garage-punk quintet are known for. ‘El Dorado’ is instead a melancholic murder ballad, with lonesome keys and baritone vocal delivery.
“"El Dorado' is a magical place hidden in plain sight discovered by the Danish in glorious summer," they say. "When we wrote this we knew it was the beginning, the rush before takeoff. This would be the scene setter. Rolls and rolls of visions flung across the inner eye, of dancing Elephants and smoking turrets and choked air and we splatted them across the pages with the frenzy of a dog on fire...”
