Gurriers will release their new LP, Nobody’s Coming To Save You, on September 25 via their new label home, Play It Again Sam. Along with the news, the band are sharing the album’s title track and accompanying video, “Nobody’s Coming To Save You”.

Nobody’s Coming To Save You was recorded between Donegal’s Attica Studios and Holy Mountain Studios in London, and produced by Mark Bowen (Idles) and Loren Humphrey (Geese, Cameron Winter), alongside engineer Chris Fullard (Idles, Sunn O)))) and mixed by John Congleton (St. Vincent, Modest Mouse, Swans).

Speaking about the single, the band – comprised of Dan Hoff on vocals, Ben O’Neill on guitar, Mark MacCormack on guitar, Pierce Callaghan on drums and Charlie McCarthy on bass – explains: “It’s a song that feels hopeless on its first listen, but if you look at it more deeply it’s a call to action, no one is going to rise up if everyone expects someone else to do it. We all have to do our part in creating the change.”

The track started life in response to a particularly irksome review that criticised the band for “saying so many political things but having no answers”. “We’re a band, we’re not a political party! So I used a Vonnegut quote, and one from [American writer and activist] Rebecca Solnit – ‘Hope is an axe you can break down doors with’ – because I don’t have the answers, but these two people might?”
