New album update

MILLOY – Update April 2008

 

So yeah – we have finally finished the rehearsals for our new album and other than a few little bit’s here and there, we’re in the studio at the end of this month to record our second full length album…  And we love it…

 

The sessions have seen the band completely re-invent the way the songs are written, with both Ian and Beefy asserting their own quality control on to their writing, it’s meant that little to no time has been wasted on pieces that just didn’t cut it and the inputs Brigga and Bedi have therefore added much more in terms of dynamics to what were already rocking tunes.

Jim’s trademark voice is on top form, and with so much more to work with in terms of songs, it has enabled him to demonstrate much more of his range.

 

The songs display considerable differences in structure to previous releases, but of course we’ve ensured there will be numbers on the album that will deliver the now obligatory in your face punk rock.

So far we’ve agreed releases with “Household Name Records” for the UK market, “Boss Tuneage” for Europe and Japan, and “Poison City Records” of Melbourne Australia look like they may release a double album featuring the new album and of course More Than a Machine.  Hopefully we’ll have some other labels on board once the recording is completed.

 

Also we will be covering much of the UK this summer and we are in the process of putting the finer details to our first tour of Germany due in October, which we’re totally buzzing about.

 

Tally ho for now – we’ll let you know how the sessions are going later this month…

Milloy

About the band

The Wakefield, West Yorkshire based punk/rock band Milloy was formed in 2000 by guitarists Beefy & Bedi, bassist Ian, drummer Brigga and front-man Jim McManus. With their debut release in 2001 with the 6 Track EP “Autodrivel”, the band were soon creating a huge wave of interest within the UK underground scene. Milloy re-shaped the mould in terms of the pop-punk bands that had been so plentiful in West Yorkshire and England in the 90’s and did this by injecting intelligent song writing that was fuelled with the angst of emo and delivered as if their lives depended on it. With the 2002 EP “Belt Up” confirming this, the band then focussed on their live performances and began to tour. In 2003 a split CD and 12” was released with their good friends “The Leif Ericsson” and together they toured the UK. In mid 2004 Jim McManus left the band due to other priorities and commitments, the rest of the band decided to continue writing and search for a new singer. With an album half written and no-one up to the job on vocals in December after 4 months of searching for a replacement, Jim re-joined the band. The writing continued and by May 2005 the band were ready to record again. Their debut album “More Than a Machine” was released in July 2005.. The album showed yet another shift in Milloy’s ability to add further dimensions to their sound, this time in a much darker harder hitting vein. In 2006 Milloy recorded 2 songs for a split release with “Billy No Mates” who featured the legendary Duncan Redmonds (Snuff / Guns N’Wankers) on vocals and drums. The 2 songs recorded “Le Coup de Grace” and “Damaged Goods” are possibly the 2 finest recorded examples of Milloy in full flight. The former a blistering devastating barrage of anger, and the latter an ironic ode demonstrating the full range of McManus. In October 2007 the album “More Than a Machine” was re-packaged, re-mastered and re-released on “Household Name” records. In January 2008 their first BBC Radio 1 session was aired. APRIL 2008. MILLOY WILL BE RECORDING THEIR NEW ALBUM LATER THIS MONTH
