Mullingar's The Blizzards have come a long way in the last few years- working their way up the stages at Oxegen and picking up a few awards while they were at it. The lads are about to release album number two (pictured above), and have now debuted it's lead single online.
As one can see from the video they've really tightened up their sound and are obviously still enjoying themselves (note the gratuitious 'Let's fucking SMASH this fucking piano!!').
Can they topple the mighty onslaught of the incoming Fight Like Apes album to be declared most favoriteist Irish Indie Sensation? We shall have to wait and see...
The boys are on tour during September & October. Dates and Blizzard-assisted time wasting in the readmore...
