WE WERE PROMISED JETPACKS

Signing off their debut ‘These Four Walls’ campaign with ‘The Last Place You’ll Look EP’ in April 2010 – and a spectacular North American tour with Jimmy Eat World, We Were Promised Jetpacks decamped to Sigur Ros’ Sundlaugin Studios in the frozen wilds of Iceland to record the new record.Armed with the confidence built from their time on the road and firm ideas as to how the new record should sound, ‘In The Pit Of The Stomach’ is emphatically a sustained piece of work full of fiery, muscular and hugely atmospheric epics.

Post the release of their ‘These Four Walls’ debut in June 2009 the band have achieved huge success touring America and Europe, highlights of which include selling out New York’s Williamsburg Music Hall and attracting high-profile support slots for gold-selling US rock bands like Passion Pit and Jimmy Eat World.

With thunderous live performances matching the power of fellow Scots Mogwai and a pop sensibility comparable to that of Foals or Bloc Party, ‘In The Pit Of The Stomach’ proves how We Were Promised Jetpacks have stealthily become a fully-fledged rock band - louder, wilder, avidly literate, fiercely melodic, powerfully restrained.

LET’S BUY HAPPINESS

Let’s Buy Happiness have supported Idlewild, Sky Larkin, The Temper Trap, HEALTH, Vivian Girls and The Futureheads, played The Great Escape, Evolution Festival, In The City and T4’s Outside In Festival. And they were selected by Eavis and co. to play this year’s Glastonbury Festival (John Peel Stage).

“…one of the most thrilling new bands I’ve seen in years” - Drowned in Sound

“Four guys, one girl and lyrics about wolves, Tyneside fivesome Let’s Buy Happiness have a fondness for wistful, US indie pop. Imagine a female-fronted Shins.” - Q Magazine

“…Their debut video will make your life” - NME

“Clearly already on their way to greatness.” - Tom Robinson, BBC 6Music

“Delay-smothered guitars and wordy lyrics shot through with an air of impending doom. The highlight of their five-song debut EP, No Hot Ashes, is Devil Show, a wonderfully skewed pop ditty brought to life by Sarah Hall’s restless vocals.” - Metro
