Blurb :

Third full length from Somerset trio Henry Blacker, follow up to 2013's
Hungry Dogs Will Eat Dirty Puddings and 2015's Summer Tombs. As with the
first two Riot Season is again taking on the release.

HB Formed because there's nothing to do in Somerset. HB Formed because the
other band they do (Hey Colossus) rehearse in London and they wanted a band
they didn't need to travel the width of the country to jam with. This nine
song 40 minute record lyrically covers the downtrodden, shaking them with
lysergically gloopy riffs of both the upbeat and downbeat nature. it is
perfectly suited for 30 people in a bar having a night of pints. Or a packed
venue in some exotic hot spot full of characters having a night of white
wines. Or would sit nicely soundtracking a person at home secretly having a
night of cans alone, drowning their misery under the weight of an 8 pack of
European strength lager.

Inspiration comes from all the desert rock bands and angular punk rock bands
that always get listed on these things, you can imagine. Bands that list
bands on these things that they want you to think they sound like are
ridiculous. They did recently get included on a recent Bandcamp piece: 'Top
Ten UK Noiserock bands', but that list didn't include Drunk In Hell so it's
not to be trusted.

This record was recorded in Bristol and Barton St David by Ben Turner. Look
up Barton St David, it's in the middle of nowhere and it's really lovely.
It's also where HB rehearse. It's got it all, and biscuits on top.
