NEW SINGLE OUT NOW!

The new single by The Winter Olympics: I Miss The Nineties/This Is The Fourth Time I’ve Been In Your House is out now on download, CD and cassette single.

The iTunes shop is fully stocked and I’ve got more singles under my bed than Charlie Sheen. Why not buy one? (The only acceptable answer to this is, “because I am an idiot”.)

CLICK HERE TO BUY THE SINGLE FROM ITUNES

Want an actual physical copy of the songs? Maybe on hand-numbered, limited edition CD, or perhaps embarrassingly-attractive cassette single (with free download card) and full-colour art by exciting young British artist Lottie White?

Not keen on buying things off the internet? Come down to The Wheelbarrow in Camden on Wednesday 16 March for our ABSOLUTELY FREE launch party and give us cash. Actually, you should come to the party anyway. Here’s a Facebook page with all the details, we’ve got an amazing line-up featuring us, Alphabet Backwards, Gold Future Joy Machine DJs, top secret special guests, reasonably priced drinks and a pie bar. All for NO MONEY AT ALL (so you can afford to buy our new record, right).

 

This last week people have been saying all sorts of amazing things about the single. Shout4Music magazine claimed:

Let’s get it out there right at the start – this should be the song of the summer… If you’re an ageing indie kid then this is possibly the song of your life. 9/10

While Room Thirteen magazine went with the slightly-more-concise:

Both tracks are brilliant

and gave it a ten. Still not convinced? Check out this interview we did with Kenneth John Porteous of the ever-excellent Loud Horizon magazine, which features this quote:

Martin has always maintained that his ultimate musical goal is for the band to appear on Top of the Pops. There’s only one of those a year now, so it looks like we’re going to have to come up with a Christmas Number one. That can’t be hard, right?

or the preposterously good video for I Miss the Nineties directed by Chris Hemming and produced by Russ Mclean of Passion Pictures that’s been causing certain sections of the blogosphere to scream:

Warning - he looks like he sort of hipster you’d want to kick in the plums.

Yeah, cheers.

Anyway, just to re-cap. The new record is OUT NOW. Six months of hard graft, six minutes of glory, £1.58. Bargain.

Thanks for all your support. If you have any trouble with the downloads, Church of Merch, or have any other customer service questions/song requests for Wednesday night, do drop us a line at band@thewinterolympicsband.com.

Cheers!
