Cloud Nothings to release limited edition vinyl and free 5-track album sampler

Following Cloud Nothings' incredible set at Cargo in London last month, a Shepherd's Bush Empire slot with Bob Mould, festival appearances and regional UK shows that have seen the band prove that guitar music is far from dead, the Ohio-based quartet have announced that they will be releasing a limited edition vinyl live album on July 30th through Wichita Recordings.

The band will also return to London for a show at XOYO on August 21st.

Recorded and mixed by James Kananen at the end of a long US tour, 'Live at the Grog Shop' set catches the band on amazing form, with ear-splitting performances at breakneck speeds – the tour has not left them road-weary, rather it finds them truly at the top of their game.
