Introducing the latest Brutalist Records release in collaboration with French label ‘À TOI À MOI’ is a collaboration EP between French bands and and British bands and .eurosuite on super limited black vinyl and colouring sleeve!

À TOI À MOI is a musical mixology project that proves even after political separation, artistic collaboration continues. For the first anniversary of Brexit, The Eurosuite (UK), Naguals (UK), This Will Destroy Your Ears (FR) and Shoefiti (FR) combined their musical worlds just for kicks, creating 4 tracks with all of their 280 fingers, ending up with songs the blend and merge the worlds of synth-pop, noise, new-wave and indie-rock. This merry crew came up with a simple but oh-so-efficient plan: each band would write the premises of a song, which would then be sent to the others to have fun with. Anyone could add absolutely whatever was going through his or her mind without having to justify anything to the band coming up with the idea. For the final decisions, they placed their trust in the mighty Wayne Adams who mixed the tracks at his Bear Bites Horses Studio (JOHN, USA Nails, Lower Slaughter, Henge) in London and Will Killingsworth who mastered it all at the Dead Air Studio in Pelham, USA.
The result? Four peculiar and captivating songs, sometimes introspective and sometimes straightforward and aggressive, which will please the fans of each band, challenging them to guess who came up with what or to find the identities of the protagonists involved on each tune. Of course, nothing is mentioned in the artwork! The songs simply bearing the names À, TOI, À and MOI… This Franco-British co-production will be released ironically on 04 February 2022 (Brexit Anniversary)

Thank you to everyone who has pre-ordered the debut album from local heroes Fake Empire your support is truly humbling!

Unfortunately the pressing plant has confirmed to us today there is a delay in the manufacturing of the vinyl, this is something occurring across the industry due to increased demand and limited supply of resources.

The LP is due to leave the factory mid-March 2022 and will be with you all by the end of March.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately it is out of our hands.
We thank you all for your patience, and I can assure you the record is well worth the wait !
