Manchester-based loudmouths Bruise Control<\/strong> have announced the release of their long-awaited debut album, Useless For Something<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The band, whose sound sits somewhere between ’80s hardcore and ’00s post-punk, will unleash the long-player on TNSRecords in mid-April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They’ve spent the last few years carving a name for themselves on their home city’s thriving DIY punk scene, earning a reputation for chaotic live shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Impressively for a band who haven’t released an album yet, they’ve already played at Manchester’s 1,800-capacity Albert Hall, supporting Aussie pub-rockers Amyl and the Sniffers last year.<\/p>\n\n\n

In true DIY fashion, Useless For Something<\/em> has been mixed and produced by the band\u2019s guitarist Niall Griffin, keeping the core sound as true as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Few debut albums are as eagerly anticipated as this one, and for good reason. Their debut four-track EP Bruise Control <\/em>in June 2020, and HMRCEP<\/em> in February 2021 suggest they could be a very big noise indeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They released the first taste of their new material in December, in the form of the lively single Taxman<\/em>, which was followed last week by Dead On Arrival<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
