Eades - Final Sirens Call - 1LP

For a long time, Eades were a band of heavy nights and distant days. Carving an unsteady line between classic post-punk and beer-drenched art rock, their debut 2022 album Delusion Spree embraced the hedonistic rattle of their hometown Leeds, each track humming with youthful anxiety and reinvention. Not only did it earn them well-deserved plaudits from the UK press, including NME, Line Of Best Fit, Clash and So Young, but it also became the beating heart of their raucous live sets, as they toured relentlessly throughout the continent. 

Yet beneath this turbulence was always a mercurial attention to their roots and influences, manifesting itself in a careful control of the recording process from start to finish. As the ashes kicked up by their debut began to settle, Eades began to find a new-found growth amidst the rubble of their youth. This was none so clear than on their last EP, 2024’s Liquid Gold, which channelled traditional Americana and the creative values of mid 90’s indie, resulting in the clearest expression yet of the storytelling partnership between lead vocalists, Harry Jordan and Tom O’Reilly. It once again saw them rack up glowing reviews, from DORK magazine to The Guardian and lead to recording sessions at Abbey Road Studios.
