Pure Love, MellowHype postpone LPs
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 30 August 2012
Ah, music stars and their flexible LP campaigns. First Azealia Banks and A$AP Rocky re-set the dates by which fans will be able to buy their debut long players, and now Pure Love and MellowHype are at it. I despair sometimes, I really do.
First to Frank Carter’s post-Gallows reincarnation Pure Love, who have postponed the release of their first LP, ‘Anthems’, by six months. It’ll now be out on 4 Feb, and they haven’t even bothered to explain why. If you forgive this and are still interested in all-things Pure Love, the band begin a headline tour at the Exeter Cavern on 25 Oct.
Rap duo MellowHype, aka Odd Future’s Hodgy Beats and Left Brain, have blamed a delay in releasing their new record, ‘Numbers’, on their own sense of artistic perfectionism, setting its issue date back by a week to 8 Oct. Hodgy shared the revised date via Twitter, adding in a since-deleted tweet: “My album is great but it wasn’t intact. I’m on tour getting these masters right. I won’t settle and put out music I’m unsatisfied with”.
Beats also published an official tracklisting by way of compensation, and this is it:
