COLT 45 are set to release their new EP titled Snakes & Ladders on April 29th 2016. Take look at the artwork below. The EP is also followed by a special release show at The Brickyard in Carlisle, Scotland.
This is what drummer Adam Lewis said on the band’s forthcoming material: “Snakes & Ladders is our reaction to the current state of the rock scene. Bar a few exceptions it just doesn’t say anything to us, and we wanted to make a record that had the same appeal as the ones we listened to growing up.
“Bands like The Movielife, Brand New, The Replacements, Alkaline Trio, The Ataris, Hot Water Music – those records made you feel like you belonged to part of something that was bigger than the sum of its parts, that anyone with a guitar or a drum kit could start a band and have a go.
“The whole point of music for us is that it’s inclusive, it brings people together and there’s a shared platform where artists and fans are on the same level. Just do what you like and get out there and show people.”
Additionally, the band are set to hit the road on a headline tour, with support from FAUX. Tour dates can be found below.
