New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Glaswegian quartet UNITED FRUIT are today pleased to reveal the video for 'Nightmare, Recovery' the title track from their latest EP 'Nightmare Recovery' on 13th November 2015 via Ditto Music.
A trippy and tangled look at the band in action, the new visuals have a grainy, distorted quality with hazy purple colours mingling with their blistering intent.
The video was premiered by Clash Magazine who described them as "one of Scotland's best-kept secrets. A seismic live act, the band have begun to focus and refine this energy in the studio, creating some stunningly intense rock music. Title cut 'Nightmare, Recovery' is a stellar piece of rock bedlam, all sharp edges, stuttering percussion and driving vocals."
Unfortunately the band have also had to postpone a forthcoming run of UK headline dates this November in support of the new record. In a statement on their official Facebook page the band say:
"Due to severe personal circumstances, we are regrettably having to cancel our UK tour. We are so sorry to everyone that has bought tickets and to the show organisers. We will however be back very soon. Thank you for the continued support from everyone."
The 'Nightmare, Recovery' EP is released on 13th November 2015 via Ditto Music.
'Nightmare Recovery' is the latest step in a brave new direction that sees the four piece continuously tinkering with the rules of modern rock, as evidenced by the EP's further departure from the tried and tested formula into territory that crosses paths with post-punk, post-rock and shoegaze influences whilst retaining the melodic surges and choruses that have so far served them well.
Busily building their reputation as a blinding and unrelenting live act over the past few years, UNITED FRUIT have previously toured with the likes of Twin Atlantic and The Twilight Sad, and been a part of the DIY and Dr Martens sponsored #StandForSomething tour. They have appeared at festivals all over the world including Scotland's T in The Park, Czech Republic's Rock For People and Austin's infamous SXSW 2015, where they played the Stereogum and Exploding In Sound Records showcase along with several other appearances.
Previous single 'Open Your Eyes' has racked up an impressive 68,000 Soundcloud streams and counting, with support from BBC Radio One and saw praise heaped on the band from the likes of The 405, Clash, Drowned In Sound, The Skinny, Artrocker and more.
