RED LORRY YELLOW LORRY – Driving Black EP (Limited Black Splattered Vinyl) - LP

The Driving Black EP is a limited edition of 1000 copies worldwide, on Black with Splatters coloured Vinyl, coming in a four-colour sleeve, two-pages inlay and outer PVC collectors bag. The Vinyl runs on 45 RPM and is destined to become an instant collector's item for fans and vinyl enthusiasts alike. The 6 tracks on this EP are a first taster for the ALL NEW full-length album [early 2025]! Red Lorry Yellow Lorry is an iconic post-punk band hailing from Leeds, formed in 1981. Known for their dark, minimalist sound that fuses driving rhythms with bleak, atmospheric guitars, they carved out their own niche with a unique blend of gothic rock, industrial, and post-punk influences. Their music radiates a raw, hypnotic energy, driven by Chris Reed’s unmistakable deep, brooding vocals. The band achieved critical acclaim in the 1980s with albums like Talk About the Weather (1985) and Paint Your Wagon(1986). Early singles like "Monkeys on Juice" and "Beating My Head" became underground anthems, shaping the darker edges of post-punk and gothic music. Over time, Red Lorry Yellow Lorry built a dedicated following, their uncompromising sound leaving a lasting influence on the gothic and post-punk revival scenes. COP International is incredibly proud to add another milestone release to the discography of this iconic band. The Driving Black EP serves as a tantalizing prelude to their forthcoming album “Strange Kind of Paradise”. The EP offers three exclusive tracks alongside three distinctive mixes from the upcoming album, including one by legendary producer John Fryer, renowned for his work with Depeche Mode, Nine Inch Nails, Cocteau Twins (…), one by the amazing Berlin- based indiepop/wave/post-rock act THE HALO TREES and another by Simon Ding Archer (known for his work with The Fall, 1919, PJ Harvey, and Pixies), who brings his signature ex- perimental edge to the production. Red Lorry Yellow Lorry’s legacy lives on, and this new chapter promises to be as powerful and uncompromising as ever.
