Glasgow’s Cowboy Hunters don’t ease you in. The duo’s new EP ‘EPeepee’ is out now, and it arrives with all the force and chaos that’s made them one of the UK’s most talked-about live acts. Drums, bass, and vocals. That’s the whole setup. That’s all they need. Listen here.
Lead single “Have A Pint” captures exactly what Cowboy Hunters do best. It sounds like a demonic fairground ride set loose in a pub, equal parts confrontational and communal, blunt and immediate. Three minutes of catharsis that doesn’t waste a second. It’s the kind of track that makes you want to shout, shove, and grin all at once.
The duo’s reputation has been building fast. They’ve shared stages with Franz Ferdinand, English Teacher, and Bob Vylan, with Franz Ferdinand’s Alex Kapranos calling them “the coolest band in Glasgow right now.” That’s not a throwaway compliment. Kapranos knows a thing or two about what Glasgow sounds like when it’s firing.
‘EPeepee’ also includes “Money For Drugs,” a cover of Princess Superstar and Mason’s cult club hit “Perfect (Exceeder),” and three more tracks that push the duo’s unfiltered, high-impact sound further than before. No cowboys are safe.
