Hampshire stream "Happy Fucking Halloween" at Half Cloth from upcoming 7" single RIYL: My Chemical Romance, Saves The Day, Crime In Stereo, Fireworks, Loose Planes Free download of last EP "Two Trains" on bandcamp A-Side streaming at Absolute Punk "Perfect Enough" "Combining the ornate tunefulness of In Reverie-era Saves The Day with the whittled pop eeriness of Alkaline Trio (and occasional bursts of caustic post-hardcore a la Fairweather), “Happy Fucking Halloween,” the new single from Michigan emo/punk trio Hampshire is a sharp, clever, finely-crafted four minutes of dramatic punk melody." - Chad Jewett at Half Cloth Pre-order the record here! Limited to 200 (100 Black and 100 Halloween Orange)
