White Heat Records are pleased to announce the imminent release of One More Grain’s second album, ‘Isle of Grain’. The record follows swift on the heels of acclaimed debut ‘Pigeon English’, which emerged on Victory Garden Records (discoverers of Hot Chip) this April. Their Ubu / Can / Roxy / Wyatt / Eno / Davis-influenced sounds of brass, narrative vocal, skewed rhythms and atmospheric drones were praised to the heavens by the press and fans (including Scottish crime novelist extraordinaire Ian Rankin) alike.

The ‘Having A Ball’ single will be accompanied with a video by rising directorial star Dave Ma (Foals, ddd), and the band are recording a session with Xfm’s John Kennedy on November 5th. One More Grain are currently in the process of arranging three traditional songs from around the globe for an EP to be release next spring, and writing third album ‘Grain Fever’. Please see the attached biography for further information, along with a printed rendering of ‘Isle of Grain’s exploratory liner notes.

One More Grain Press:

NME: "Post-punk with brass? Don't be scared - this London-based quartet mix sleek sounds with John Cooper Clark-esque wisdom" ----- The Wire: "A pheasant drive with laser guns... A compelling album." ----- The Guardian: "One More Grain are a strange bunch" ----- The Sunday Times: "Great English talent...4/5" ----- Plan B: "One More Grain perfectly pinpoint the wonder and disillusion inherent in these damp isles." The Stool Pigeon: "Pigeon English is the work of a unique mind... Pere Ubu and Can for a new generation. 4/5” ----- Drowned in Sound: “Weird yet wonderful 7/10” ----- PlayLouder: "This is psychogeography with trumpets and sumptuous locked down grooves... a ramble through the dales with accompaniment courtesy of New Orleans and Detroit. 9/10"
