A Living Commodity
Every element of Egyptian Blueâs fierce, uncompromising sound feels like hypnotism fuelled by psychosis. Their grinding riffs achieve a mesmeric power through brute repetition, while their rhythm section produces taut, nervous energy and intense post-punk grooves in equal measure.
Following on from their incendiary debut E. Pâs; 2019âs âCollateral Damageâ & 2020âs âBody Of Itchâ, the band garnered a fervent following and had support from key tastemakers across the media including Steve Lamacq, Jack Saunders, Tom Ravenscroft, NME and Fader.
In the intervening time they have been heralded by their peers as one of the best new bands in the country; IDLES frontman Joe Talbot describing them as âfucking sickââ and picking them as his act of choice for the BBC Introducing stage at Glastonbury 2022. Yannis Philippakis is another avowed super-fan, personally choosing Egyptian Blue as support for Foalsâ run of arena shows in the UK & Europe during their Life Is Yours tour run.
The band have now re-appeared following an extended period of writing and recording their highly anticipated debut album ââA Living Commodityââ, due for release on 27th October 2023 via YALA! Records, the label co-founded by former Maccabee Felix White and home to releases from acts including The Magic Gang, YAK, The Homesick, FEET, Whenyoung, Talkshow, Seraphina Simone and Willie J Healey.
With a new clarity of vision fully formed during the extended hiatus of 2-years of pandemic enforced delays, ââA Living Commodityââ represents a dynamic artistic shift from Egyptian Blue and showcases in full the scale and ambition of their songwriting.
The first teaser of new music came in the form of âGeishaâ; a psyche-tinged punk attack driven by Luke Phelps propulsive bass combined with Isaac Ideâs tight percussion, underpinned by dual frontmen Andy Buss & Leith Ambrose jagged guitar playing adding to the angsty and foreboding lyrics with Buss professing ââI live for only youââ making a magnetising collage of sounds.
