You Me At Six’s debut album – Take Off Your Colours – is set to drop October 6 through independent label Slam Dunk Records. To celebrate this with their fans, the band have confirmed the following HMV instores the week of release. These include HMV’s flagship store, Oxford Circus, on the day of release.
Mon 6 Oct - London Oxford Circus
Tues 7 Oct - Manchester Market
Wed 8 Oct - Birmingham High Street
Thurs 9 Oct - Reading Oracle
All instores will kick off at 6 PM with a performance from the band, followed by a signing. For the London date, there are a limited number of wristbands available from the Oxford Circus store starting Saturday, October 4.
Fans are advised to turn up early!
A collection of 13 anthems for our time, Take Off Your Colours reflects the changing musical landscape within the current UK rock scene. No longer are most bands striving to go back to their hardcore roots. They are influenced by bands such as Fall Out Boy and Paramore, who still belonging to the scene have incorporated an element of pop into their guitar heavy song writing to produce Radio One worthy hits.
All of the fan favourites feature on the record including Gossip, Save It For The Bedroom and If I Were In Your Shoes – the first three You Me At Six single releases and long-standing tracks on the band’s popular MySpace page. New track Jealous Minds Think Alike is also sure to win their fans over with its adrenaline fuelling introduction and powerful sing-along chorus. Title track Take Off Your Colours is another hit, less upbeat than other numbers the chorus still makes its listeners want to head bang along whilst on You’ve Made Your Bed (So Sleep In It) Franceschi honestly sings, “You’ve made your bed, so sleep in it… The games that girls will play makes me move away so I can train, train myself to trust again.”
