Spits Milk drops new album “Hell’s Lapels”

Have you ever stubbed your toe and it feels so sharp it makes you lash out and kick something else? Yeah? Okay so that’s what it feels like to listen to Spits Milk “Hell’s Lapels”. The band labelled by many friends as a supergroup, hail from Birmingham (UK) the home of tote bags and....erm, the bull ring

Made up of members of Calories (who?), Stinky Wizzleteat (eh?), Sunshine Frisbee Laserbeam (ok) and Opium Lord (hmmm). Slumped in a chair somewhere between punk, noise and pop, Spits Milk (Neil Bailey, Pete Dixon, Bruce Goodenough and Tom Whitfield) have somehow perfected their mess on Hell’s Lapels, The bands second studio album being released by Cruel Nature Recordings on 28th of July 2023.

Recorded in the bowels of Birmingham (UK) summer 2022, 'Hells Lapels' the first full length record by Spits Milk pushes boundaries and crosses genres. Slumped somewhere between punk, doom, noise and pop 'Hells Lapels' has drawn comparisons to Melvins, Idles, Oxes and Sonic youth. Spits Milk are now making preparations for touring throughout 2023/2024.

Hell’s Lapels is entwined with wit and sarcasm with a soupçon of seriousness, the album takes lyrical Stabs at the realities of modern living, Whitfield’s sometimes dry sense of humour coupled with a real-life sense of gallows humour showcase the absurdity of being a young (ish) adult in our times.

With wild guitars, solid bass lines and near perfect drumming “Hells Lapels” offers the energy of youth with the backbone of an old timer.
