Murder Capital announce their debut album

The band Murder Capital have announced the release date for their forthcoming debut album, 'When I Have Fears' for August 16.

The fair city's own quintet are also set to go on a UK and Ireland tour in the October and November months.

Their unflinching, gravelly sound have helped the post-punk band accumulate mass intrigue and a large fan gathering even before the release of a single.

Murder Capital had reached international acclaim for their live performances alone, selling-out shows and live recordings going viral on Youtube, they unveiled their first single, 'Feeling Fades', in January this year.

This elusive image in a society and industry obsessed with overexposure is a stirring breath of fresh air and has been effective in relation to career advances. Murder Capital's two singles, the aforementioned 'Feeling Fades' and 'Green and Blue' were recorded with the legendary producer Flood, who has worked with Nick Cave, U2 and PJ Harvey in the past.

With their new album and a tour underway, 2019 is sure to be a killer year for Dublin's own.
