"They sound like they must have great record collections. I like it a lot. They remind me of a lot of amazing bands I used to listen to back in the day."

Dan P Carter on "Ownership" | Radio 1 Rock Show

"Rip with golden era emo vibes."

The FADER

"Sometimes – though it feels rarer and rarer – a song, or a band if you’re lucky, just pops out of the ether and hits you with a punch that feels like a kiss, and that’s it, it’s love..."

Kerrang!

Grieving are a band from Cambridge whose music is not as immediately morbid as their name might suggest. With a nod towards the needling DC hardcore of classic Dischord, early emo and to anthemic late 90’s and early 00’s indie-rock and punk, their debut EP, released pre-pandemic, saw support from the likes of Stereogum, Alt Press, The FADER, DIY and Upset. 4 of those 5 songs also went on to see plays at either BBC Radio 1 or 6 through Huw Stephens, Dan P Carter and Tom Ravenscroft.

Two of these, "Ownership", which received daytime radio play on 6 Music, and the live favourite "My Friend, The Ghost" also make their long-awaited debut record, announced today.

After an acclaimed 7" split in 2021 on Venn Records with Johnny Foreigner side project Yr Poetry, Other Half and Yarraman, the band have announced their debut album "Everything Goes Right, All At Once", the title a positive play on a quote from The Room where - instead - all at once, everything goes wrong.

The 11 song LP lands March 15th on By The Time It Gets Dark (pre-order HERE) and was recorded in part by Matty Moon (Lonely The Brave, Spielbergs) locally at Half Ton Studios and with Bob Cooper (The Orielles, Nai Harvest, Self Defense Family) at his Crooked Rain Studios in Leeds.

The full album delivers insistent hooks and off-kilter power in equal measure - aggressive, unpredictable and full of sharp turns, the band present a full-length paean to the wealth of music that birthed them.

The band also share a new single, "Tarpaulin", a song that bassist Jack Hurst attributes to: "personally approaching a sense of self-doubt, and accepting that certainty in life is rarely exactly that."
