Easily comparable to The Horrors and Black Lips, Speak And The Spells self-penned sound is described as “a kick in the teeth…..with a load of reverb”.

Speak & The Spells formed somewhere deep inside their collective vinyl collection. And now they’re adding to yours with their debut single.
The ominous surf-rock opening riff of ‘She’s Dead’ sets the tone for a b-movie style tale of grief and grave digging. Scratchy guitars and screams provide the perfect soundtrack for singer Joe Eakin’s lament. Front man Joe is joined by Benjamin Craven (Bass) and Alex Felstead (Drums) to complete a stripped back, bare essentials line-up that’s a million miles from the gadget heavy electro of 2009 but just as thrilling.

The equally enthralling b-side ‘Brianna’ shows a spiced-up punkier side to the band, while ‘Caleb Pink’ finds the band in a more experimental mood with a 4.5 minute instrumental.
