New My First Tooth single – on VHS!

So those distinguished kids of My First Tooth fame return…! HATCHAWALLAWALLA  - and it’s a big hitter. Taken from the forthcoming album ‘Love Makes Monsters’, their first offering from the new record is a free single “Past Broadcasts” out December 3rd, 2012… Yeah. Free. Digital. GET>IT>HERE>… Or…..

Because we’re all super cool kids. It’s coming out in physical form too and all available from the shop - and for a band who’ve released stuff on scarves, business cards and hand painted musical formats of all sorts – we really had to go some to find something new. So, obviously, we picked VHS. Killer.

Yup, it’s the first EVER Alcopop! VHS EP – featuring the wonderful video for Past Broadcasts (in which Joda is in hospital), Factory (in which an animated chap is ace) and a very special acoustic version of the A-side, performed by Ross – which will forever be exlusive to this tape.

Stock is so, so, so strictly limited… Get it now, if you like your prettily stickered, and lovingly copied VHS. And MFT of course

Meanwhile, you can catch them supporting lovely Tellison on the Contact! Contact! Tour here….

My First Tooth drop their first new album cut

Yeha, and hasn’t been a long time coming… But fear not good poppers, because as well as bopping from festival to festival and strutting around looking all handsome – My First Tooth have been hard at work in the studio. And here it is ayyyyye… The first cut from the brand new record, due in 2013.

Chances are, you may have heard this on Radio 1 where it was exclusively aired for the first time tonight.. Hope you enjoy, and feel free to download/ share/ pop over to a pressing plant and commit to a one-off vinyl to give to your mother for Christmas. They’re all good.

Alcopop at the Great Escape (Friday May 11th)

We’re all going to the SEASIDE! To play the Dolphin Derby and watch some bands. We might even indulge in an ice cream or two, and we’d bloody love for you to come join us. So we’ve got together with our pals at BSM and 7 Bit Arcade to put on a little free show at the Royal Pavilion Tavern as part of the Alternative Escape on Friday 11th May!

If you were there last year (pictured), you’ll well remember that it was an understated tea party style affair, completely suitably for all the family – very polite, and not at all a debauched boozefest which ended with insane stage diving, chandaliers being ripped from the ceiling and yours truly being threatened with expulsion from the venue for ‘inciting chaos’. Put simply, it was bloody amazing – and you should TOTALLY come down this year too. We kick off at 1 in the afternoon, bands on till 2am (13 hours – yup!) with the 405 DJs till 6am. This could be the party of the Spring!

Check out the line up, remember it’s free and get there early. Last year it was one in one out from 5pm…

Katie Malco 1.15 – 1.45
Delta/Alaska 2.00 – 2.30
Glow Kit 2.50 – 3.20
Gunning for Tamar 3.40 – 4.10
Big Success 4.30 – 5.00
LightGuides 5.20 – 6
Jumping Ships 6.20 – 6.50
My First Tooth 7.10 – 7.40
Shoes and Socks Off 8.00 – 8.30
The Social Club 9.00 – 9.30
Stagecoach 10 – 10.30
Hymns 11 – 11.30
