Stagecoach are to release a new single next month.The double A-side 'Jonah Lomu' / 'Tony Hawk' will be released via our own This Is Fake DIY Records on 30th May 2011.
Both tracks were produced by super-producer James Kenosha, whose worked with zillions of bands including Pulled Apart By Horses and Dinosaur Pile-Up of late.
A super limited version of the single will be made in special pizza box packaging with a whole plethora of goodies - only available at the band's Barfly show in June. There's also another run of pretty-damn special physical format that can be ordered - more on that soon.
Speaking about about the two songs, frontman Luke Barham said:
“Sitting somewhere between The Replacements and Blur, Jonah Lomu is a song is about the school bully and that feeling of however old you get it seems they are always watching over you. Jonah Lomu seemed like a funny character to represent the bully in the song. I have zero interest or knowledge of Rugby but he's just a such a character, almost cartoon like in appearance. On the other hand, Tony Hawk is a song about so many kids from privileged backgrounds automatically go to Uni without really giving a shit. It's about a lack of respect for that opportunity and just getting stoned and playing Tony Hawk on the Playstation all day, "Maybe it's not wrong if he repeats year 1?"
