The Committee by BELK
Human Worth are proud to present the latest EP from the exciting Leeds noise outfit BELK.
The duo have been on our radar for many years now, having recently blown away crowds on a run of shows with our very own 72%. So we couldn't be more stoked to bring you this hefty slab of a 7", which is sure to blast away any remaining summer holiday "chilled vibes".
From the first note 'The Committee' punches straight to the gut, bringing BELK's unique and chaotic blend of raw as hell vocals and pummelling drums, with some hugely heavy riffs, mixed with a distinctly noise-punk mindset. Recorded and Produced by Mr Tom Goodall of the mighty Cattle (RIP) at his Hohm Recording Studio, the sound is dense, crisp and perfectly captures the band's ferocious energy.
We’ve pressed up a super limited edition of 150 crisp black 7" vinyl, featuring stunning artwork by Godsteeth Illustration. The vinyl is housed in crisp black paper inners with a hand-numbered insert, printed on a nice weighty stock and featuring the photography of Immie Hartley. The 7" also features the additional demo track 'Net' from their 2022 Promo, plus an additional demo track download.
Pre-order from 2nd September with 10% of all proceeds donated to charity Action Bladder Cancer UK, who work to support patients, raise awareness, improve early diagnosis and outcomes, and support research into bladder cancer.
