Admiral Angry will release their follow up to last year’s ‘Buster’ (review) with the EP ‘A Fire To Burn Down The World’ in April.
The EP will be released through *shelsmusic on the 23rd April, and reportedly plunges into “filthier, doomier and more sinister new depths” according to the label.
Shortly before the release of Buster, the band lost their guitarist Daniel Krauss to a long battle with cystic fibrosis. In honour of this, proceeds from the EP will be donated to cystic fibrosis research and support.
