A while ago we reviewed the band Illness. We also played them on the podcast. It is with great sadness that we must announce that the band is (conceptually) dead. They are doing a last tour at these places :

 

Thursday 4th August, Flairz, Hastings w/ Depakine Chrono and P for Persia
Friday 5th August, The Cowley Club, Brighton w/ Depakine Chrono and something else too
Saturday 6th August, Scar Studios, London w/ Depakine Chrono, Shield Your Eyes and more

 

They have also released “The Break Up Tape” on their Bandcamp page here :

I haven’t heard it yet but if it’s as good as the thing we reviewed then it’s probably worth getting hold of. I would also recommend going to see them if you’re trapped in the hell of South East England because they’re probably quite good live and they also have the amazing Shield Your Eyes with them at the London date.
