Exciting times here in the 5000 camp as East India Youth announces his debut EP release (‘Hostel’) on Quietus Phonographic Corporation – the new label set up by The Quietus specifically to release it.
“I’d always said that I’d cut my own head off using nail clippers before we started a record label” said Quietus founder John Doran, continuing; “I’d learned too much from watching other sites and magazines pour all of their time, money and talent into them, just to watch them spectacularly implode. It was, I said, like withdrawing all your money from a cash machine and setting fire to it while simultaneously flushing your own head down a toilet filled with goat’s piss.”
So you can imagine how much he digs EIY.
You can listen below, buy the lead track (‘Heaven, How Long’) on iTunes, or pre-order a signed vinyl 12″ at Rough Trade, Recordstore (signed copies) and Piccadilly Records.
