Fresh from this weekend’s 2000trees, Die Spitz have announced details of their debut album, Something To Consume.

The rising quartet – Ava Schrobilgen, Chloe De St. Aubin, Ellie Livingston and Kate Halter – will release their first full-length on September 12 via Third Man, and they describe it as a record that’s “for everyone. Whether you’re craving a smack of lively metal or a melancholy wave of grungey violin, there’s a piece of all of us injected. Something To Consume is a call to the multitudes of ways we as humans allow consumption to enrapture our culture as well as ourselves.”

The band have also unveiled lead single Throw Yourself To The Sword, which Ellie calls “a high-energy ode to what we want young people to feel. There’s a lot of existentialism and despair in other songs on the album that still sheath the same theme, but Throw Yourself To The Sword is the raise of optimism. Despite living in a state of mundanity or hopelessness, you can still rise up and fight the unknown, as long as you’re willing to throw yourself to it.”
