The band shared the title of their seventh studio album ‘Heatwave In The Cold North’ along with the artwork and tracklisting. It is due out on April 28, 2023 and can be pre-ordered here.

The band also shared the second taster from the record, which you can listen to below, following the release of the album’s title track earlier this year. Frontman Jon McClure described it as as being about “lazing around on a sunny day with your lover getting stoned.”

“Imagine if Barry White lived in Sheffield and you’re getting there,” he added.

The tracklisting for the record is as follows:

1. ‘Heatwave In The Cold North’
2. ‘Problems’
3. ‘A Letter To My 21 Year Old Self’
4. ’26 Thousand Days On The Earth’
5. ‘High’
6. ‘I Hate It When You Lie’ 
7. ‘You Don’t Love Me’
8. ‘Overthinking’
9. ‘The Exception’
10. ‘Living Without You’
