HMLTD

Formerly Happy Meal Ltd until McDonald’s lawyers got in touch, HMLTD have been buzzing about for a few years now landing a ‘One to Watch’ slot in the *XDUGLDQ back in 2017. For whatever reason, it’s taken until now for them to release their debut :HVW RI (GHQ which drops this month. Fuzzy, abrasive, urgent and assaulting, vocalist Henry Spychalski sums up the clarion call saying, “this is not dystopia, but a mirror up to late capitalism; where we are and where we’re headed. Sick dolphins lap at the tide, the insects have all dropped from the skies and the global economy enters free fall. Ecological catastrophe guaranteed. The West is dead. Atomised, alienated and apathetic.” You best be ready for when it comes falling.
