Hot Milk release new album today + fall tour dates
Hot Milk are giving fans it all today. The group has dropped their newest album ‘Corporation P.O.P.’ today, as well as a string and US and UK fest and headline dates for this fall.
The record is an extravagant, uncompromising assessment of the perilous world around us, examined through a sharp British lens that is both witty and universal. Kerrang! said, “Creative British acts embracing serious topics in a blaze of different sounds are to be cherished. Right now Hot Milk are coming to the boil.”
Having studied a politics degree, Han Mee has used that with Corporation P.O.P. — where Hot Milk unleash the pent-up anger experienced en masse around the globe. “I’ve always felt like a bit of a white knight — it’s my duty to save the world somehow,” says Han. “I feel very, very impacted by the world’s issues, consistently. I wanted to be an MEP [Member of European Parliament], that was my dream.”
Despite its global outlook, Corporation P.O.P. is an album that takes root in Manchester and Salford, exemplified by the band’s decision to shoot all of their videos in their hometown. “Newt Gingrich, who was a U.S. politician, once said ‘All politics is local,'” says Han. “I’m trying to look local and be involved locally so I can affect my world. This is how I survive, because the world can feel overwhelming.”
“Manchester is the best f’in city in the world,” she continues, getting somewhat emotional, having recently u-turned from a permanent move to L.A. when Manchester came calling back to her. “We started this band in Manchester, it’s intrinsic to me and who I am. It has to bleed into the art we create, because it helped me create it.”
