brandy Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 from FITA Records (UK): http://fitarecords.bigcartel.com/product/departures-moose-blood-split-7 Pressing info: gold/100 (hand numbered) white/200 glass clear/300 from No Sleep Records (US): https://store.nosleeprecords.com/product/6816/split Pressing info: coke bottle clear/200 (subscription) blue opaque/300 green opaque/500 Two of UK’s most promising up-and-coming rock acts, Departures and Moose Blood, are teaming up to release a Split EP on November 12th via No Sleep Records (U.S) and Fist In The Air Records (UK). The EP features two new tracks from each band and will be available on limited edition vinyl and digital download.Hailing from Glasgow, Departures is a melodic harcore band that formed in 2007. The band’s unique blend of modern hardcore and rock helped them amass a following in underground hardcore scenes in the UK and U.S. The band signed with No Sleep Records in the fall of 2012 and released their sophomore album, Teenage Haze, soon thereafter. Moose Blood got their start in 2012, writing and performing music about relationships, friends, family and drinking coffee in their hometown of Canterbury. The band’s distinctly British sound harkens back to the glory days of Deep Elm Records and mid 90’s emo. In only a year the band has released two EPs, Moving Home and Boston/Orlando. New Departures song: http://www.rocksound.tv/news/article/departures-moose-blood-to-release-split-in-november-stream-a-new-departures Surprised no one posted this yet since both are rad bands. The gold/100 is now only available in bundles because the ones by themselves sold out within a few minutes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWindBlower Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 That new Departures song really kills. Definitely looking to pick this up from No Sleep in the next few days. I'm not too familiar with Moose Blood though. Listened to a song or two. Any recommendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenixinflight Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Really like that new Departures track. Will probably grab this when No Sleep puts up something else I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AutumnEmpire Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 That new Departures song really kills. Definitely looking to pick this up from No Sleep in the next few days. I'm not too familiar with Moose Blood though. Listened to a song or two. Any recommendations? I'd check out their Moving Home EP, it's pretty good. Emo-ish stuff, but not as twinkly and generic as a lot of bands. And more British. And lots of references to other bands/albums in the lyrics.

brandy Posted October 18, 2013 Author Share Posted October 18, 2013 + their Boston|Orlando 8" which is incredibly good. Right! Incredibly limited release as well. I prefer Moving Home but this is also a great release. They seem to do no wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
