Specialist Subject Records – 06 Sep 2024
Exeter, UK indie/emo quartet Soot Sprite have announced the pending release of their debut LP. Wield Your Hope Like A Weapon is due out 16 May 2025, once again on Specialist Subject Records, the same label that also released Soot Sprite’s Jul 2024 7″ and Sep 2024 split with Muttering.
The first single from the new album is also available. “All My Friends are Depressed” comes to us as a music video. Trigger warning: certain portions of the video feature the band in clown makeup.
See that video below, and swing by the Soot Sprite Bandcamp where the album can be preordered on CD, vinyl, and digital download. They’re also on Spotify
