Brighton duo Blood Red Shoes have released their surprise EP Ø, out now digitally alongside with physical pre-orders.
“We called it Ø because it’s the symbol on audio equipment to invert the signal. The flip switch,” the band explains. “When you push the Ø button, positive becomes negative and negative becomes positive. Which feels very us. And it also makes it quite difficult for people to know how to say the name. Which is also very, very….us.”
To celebrate, the two-piece have released a video for their new single Misery Loves Company.
Ø is available to pre-order physically and stream or purchase digitally HERE.
