Isle of Wight band The Pill have released their highly anticipated debut EP ahead of a newly announced UK headline tour.
Titled THE EP, the release incorporates the band’s singles from the last twelve months, as well as a brand new track, all published under the record label AWAL.
POSH
The Pill’s newest single, POSH, is the first track on the EP.
Written on a night out, about a night out, the song features Lottie Massey on bass, Lily Hutchings on guitar, with Gavin Sullivan on drums.
“It’s a wild, stupid, parody of ourselves and our music”
Speaking about the new single, The Pill said,
“POSH is drawn from the point of view of the messy, bratty, party girl personas we put on for a laugh after a few too many drinks.
“It’s a wild, stupid, parody of ourselves and our music.”
Previous singles
The previously released singles on the EP include Scaffolding Man, Money Mullet and The Pill’s first ever release from April last year, Bale of Hay.
Rufus Reader can be heard on drums for all of the EP’s tracks other than POSH.
