The latest single by Leeds based noise-hop branded Castrovalva, taken from their upcoming album ‘You’re Not In Hell, You’re In Purgatory My Friend’

We recently interviewed Castrovalva’s front man and synth player, Leemun Smith in which he described the new album to be, ‘more listenable, more heavy, less pissing around,’ in comparison to debut album We Are A Unit.
