: BIRD CALLS →
zineaboutthat:
Bird Calls are a three piece emo/punk band from London. They have their own unique sound which is awesome but if you were going to file them next to anyone it would be bands such as Cap’n Jazz, Snowing and Street Smart Cyclist. Do yourself a favour and check out this band!

Hi it's nice to meet you. →
We’re pretty new to this site and figured that maybe instead of posting rants and re-blogging animals alllll the time, we should actually post something about the band.
We have a split 7” coming out with Human Hands in the next month or so, hopefully in time for the shows we fortunately have with them on the Football etc./YNTL liar (who are both excellent) tour. Come out, it would...
