Reporting Live From The Living Room Floor vinyl

The much anticipated debut EP from next up would be post-punk upstarts, Hallan, is equal parts familiar and alien.

While musically not straying too far from the likes of potential peers such as Shame or Yard Act, it's the utterly bizarre degrees of conceptualisation that have gone into 'Reporting Live From The Living Room' that make it such an intriguing debacle.

Lyrically operating like a humorous Black Mirror episode, exploring an Orwellian alternate reality where vapid indie-pop and radio jingles are the only legal forms of music. It gets messier from there, but with scathing witticisms and eccentric comparisons bolstered by swagger, attitude, and most vitally hooks, like the sarcy earworm found on 'Hands Up', it's hard not to think of Hallan as a recurring name on the scene in due course.
