Description
With the country in the grip of Egg Mania surreal DIY punk rockers The Lovely Eggs return with their latest single Big Sea released on 7 mind-surfing blue-wave vinyl and will take to the road in May for another bout of UK tour dates. Taken from their newly released and critically acclaimed album This is Eggland ,Big Sea explores the mysteries of the universe and is a rallying anthem to everyone who wants to live life different. Its a pretty deep song really, said Holly, It questions the ridiculousness of human ritualistic behaviour and tries to look at what life is all about, the universe and stuff, and the mystery that weaves its way through everything. Since its release in February This is Eggland has won high praise from critics and fans alike. The Independents 4* review described it as a giant leap forward with The Guardian describing their single Wiggy Giggy as marvellous. Produced and mixed by Grammy award winning producer Dave Fridmann (Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev, Tame Impala) and self released on their own label Egg Records, This is Eggland confounded expectations, hitting number nine in the UK Independent National Album Chart, it also made it to number 23 in the UK Vinyl Charts and overall number 136 in the UK National Album Chart. The Lovely Eggs are one of the most unique, innovative and genuine bands on the British Underground music scene. Holly Ross (guitar/vocals) and David Blackwell (drums) have built up a cult following, selling out gigs across the UK, as well as gaining support from BBC 6 Music and Radio One. Heavier and more in-your-face than anything theyve done previously, This is Eggland brings together a fierce DIY ethos, surreal sense of humour and kitchen-sink realism, creating an explosive blend of motoric krautrock, 60s psychedelia and punk rock attitude. The album received a tremendous response from radio. It was declared Album of the Day by BBC Radio 6 Music who also added their single Wiggy Giggy to the BBC 6 Music playlist.
