Manchester based band Hot Milk have announced their sophomore album Corporation P.O.P due for release on 27th June via Music For Nations. The band have released ’90 Seconds To Midnight’ taken from this album, with a video featuring Frank Skinner. Pre-order the album now.
Vocalist Han Mee comments on the single, “The doomsday clock is nearing midnight and this frantic song sets the mood for the oncoming nuclear winter. We wanted to punch you proper in the face with this, this balls to the wall little riffy boy comes bounding at you relentlessly. Lyrically we took inspiration from 17th century philosopher Rousseau and the poet John Betjemen with his poem ‘Slough’. Rousseau set out that humanity would never be free as we create our own shackles. In this case, we’ve created our own demise. Where as Betjemens poem takes this notion of demise and laughs at it, inviting the nukes in “come friendly bombs”… Let’s set the gaff on fire and start again.”
Hot Milk have also announced live dates across the UK and US this April. Tickets are available now.
