Snapped Ankles share brand new single 'Planet You' from Blurtations EP

Snapped Ankles - Planet You (out today)

SNAP17E RGB300

Snapped Ankles have unleashed ‘Planet You’, the second track to be taken from their Blurt covers EP which will land on April 22nd - AKA Record Store Day. It features all the log synth and drums abuse you’ve come to know and love from the woodwose, and shows their hairy hand where it comes to one of their primary post-punk absurdist influences. It’s accompanied by a post-punk absurdist video pieced together by Rob Daglish.

Blurtations will be pressed on yellow vinyl and packaged in a die-cut sleeve with a postcard that riffs on the artwork of Blurt’s self-titled debut studio album. Limited to just 1,200 copies for the world, it will land in European record shops for RSD 2023 on April 22nd, with a limited release for the rest of the world to follow.

Next week sees Blurt take to the legendary 100 Club stage. Get your tickets now, and you may just recognise the forest folk in the DJ booth come March 14th.

On Forest of Your Problems:

“Forest of Your Problems takes in Krautrock, tribal rhythms, post-punk - but it winds up sounding almost nothing like anyone else”
The Guardian

“Snapped Ankles scope has expanded, resulting in this riotous takedown of eco-hypocrisy and corporate greenwashing to the accompaniment of rhythms so wildly exuberant they could rearrange loins”
4/5Mojo

“Some madcap fusion between Devo and The Fall if they were trapped in a Forest”
7/10Uncut

“The kind of hyperactive, motorik bangers that can send audiences into hysterics”
Album of the weekBrooklyn Vegan

“One of the most intriguing bands to come out of London”
Paste Magazine

“Ten addictive dance cuts”
The Quietus

“A Goat-meet-The-Fall sound world that perfectly captures the group’s psychotic, eerie vision of the Anthropocene”
8/10Loud & Quiet

“There are not many bands that sounds as unique as Snapped Ankles”
