Release Notes:

GlasgowÆs Butcher Boy return with their 2nd LP, again, on
LondonÆs How Does It Feel To Be Loved? record label.

The band are led by John Blain Hunt and it's his intelligent
lyrical song writing that makes you sit up and take notice
when you slip 'React Or Die' into your CD player.

Butcher Boy's sound continues in the classic Glasgow vein -
think Belle and Sebastian at their most potent. This is pop
music that transports you to a sepia tinted world. A world
where Morrissey and kitchen sink dramas take centre stage.
The sleeve echoes classic Smiths whilst being thoroughly
Butcher Boy - they're becoming very adept at building a world
which you can easily slip into.

The LP rewards with repeated plays much in the way that their
dÚbut release did. Picking favourites is hard as the LP sits
together as a complete whole. The most notable change is the
way the production brings every nuance of the songs to the
fore. This is classic indiepop - but this is no low budget
recording. 'React Or Die' sounds like a labour of love and
indeed it has taken a full year to realise. I fear
protracted records as it can ultimately lead to an over egging
of the cake where what was great about a band is stripped
away. Thankfully this isn't the case here, as every song
sounds fully formed and effortlessly made.

The LP is proceeded by a download only single ‘Carve A
Pattern’ on February 9th. ‘React Or Die’ is available to
pre-order now from the How Does It Feel To Be Loved? website -
and will be in shops in April.
