dave the band / Slob Stories 12" Vinyl

Newcastle’s best-kept secret dave the band’s highly anticipated debut album Slob Stories, featuring singles ‘Fine!’ and ‘Get Smart’ will be released Friday, August 28^th. To capture the brain-to-page intensity of lead singer Noah’s songwriting, the band worked with none other than Steve Albini - the acerbic mastermind behind classic records by Pixies, Cloud Nothings, and Nirvana - at his Electrical Audio studio in Chicago.

As for the title, it’s a play on ‘sob stories’; a slip of the tongue from Gabe that stuck in the most perfectly apt way. “We’re three slobs from Newcastle who went to America to record an album, and I like to think most people can relate to these themes,” Noah says. “We’re all slobs dealing with this stuff together.”
