HOOKED UP RECORDS SIGN BLACK LIGHT THEATRE FOR A SINGLE DEAL!
We would like to announce the beginning of a partnership between Black Light Theatre and Hooked Up Records.....
HU made a trip to sunny Sheffield this weekend to see BLT play an afternoon show and would like to confirm all rumours that Black Light Theatre are yet another brilliant band to come from this spectacular city!
Hooked Up Records will be releasing a 7" single of '1402 Valentines Massacre' sometime in early October and the band will be playing BIG shows all over the country to showcase their amazing live show!
HUR and BLT are very excited about the signing and look forward to bringing you what will surely be a very important release.....please stay tuned for details of the Sheffield and London single release parties!
"A feast of stinging feedback, droney, disembodied vocals and driving, mantric rhythms. Imagine if Creation hadn't bothered with signing Oasis. They'd be putting out records like this and still praying for a new My Bloody Valentine album".
Available from all good records stores now!
College Fall Album Out Now!
