Peel

Coves released their debut album ‘Soft Friday’ in March 2014 to critical acclaim (“cold-blooded revenge pop that strikes like a shard of shattered plate to the heart”, NME, 9/10; “splurges of psychedelic colour, a hatful of great songs”, Q, 4/5; “a terrific debut full of scuzzed up guitars, dirty synths, nihilistic lyrics and Wood's magnificently bored, though never boring, vocals”, Uncut). It saw the likes of Zane Lowe, Huw Stephens, Lauren Laverne and Nick Grimshaw become fans and critics liken Coves to such disparate acts as Spiritualized, Lana Del Ray, The Shangri-La’s and Brooklyn trend-setters Crystal Stilts and Vivian Girls. Now they’re back with ‘Peel’, the new album set for release on 6th May 2016. First single ‘Stormy’ was released in December to a flurry of online support and anticipation.
