Lovvers release debut LP

Lovvers release debut LP


After releasing the skuzzy wedge of pop that is single 'OCD Go Go Girls’ last week (video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ETEgecb_wE), Wichita punks Lovvers today release their debut LP, 'OCD Go Go Go Girls’.

Praise and comment on the record is coming in thick and fast with Friday’s Guardian saying it has a 'sound akin to garage rock being dragged through a meat processor. It’s exhilarating stuff.', last week’s NME saying it 'ticks all the right boxes' and Q proclaiming it 'as rough as a bear’s backside'.

Lovvers have also just confirmed a full UK tour for September, including a fistful of dates with Times New Viking.
