(10th September, 2012 – Club AC30 Records UK )
(11th September, 2012 -Sonic Unyon in USA / Canada)

This will be proceeded by their new album 'Mauve' (24th Sept)

“There is a direct line between My Bloody Valentine, the Jesus and Mary Chain and Ringo Deathstarr. And it stops at Slowdive Central. If you retain any fondness for those three – and are mentally aroused by a spot of melody-heavy guitar pop – you will adore the 'Starr” - THE GUARDIAN

“It’s a shame we do not live in a world in which Ringo Deathstarr is the name of Liam Gallagher’s new band” - NME

“The band sounds like it leaped screaming out of My Bloody Valentine's blown amps” - WIRED

“Their pulsing layers of feedback and those droll, deadpan vocals are ripped
straight from Psychocandy, but the galloping, amphetamine rhythms are
harder charging than even the most amped up track on that album” - Pitchfork

Ringo Deathstarr have announced details of the release of their second album. Mauve will be released through Club AC30 Records on Monday 24th September 2012.

The album, produced by Elliott Frazier from the band, was recorded at The Bubble in Austin, Texas and Skylab in Los Angeles in the spring of 2012.

Ringo Deathstarr formed in 2007 in their native Austin, Texas channeling influences such as The Cure, The Smiths, Fugazi and The Velvet Underground. They initially released a batch of singles on both sides of the Atlantic and in Japan – a self-titled EP in 2007 and in 2009, a brace of 7”s in the States, You Don’t Listen & In Love.

Their critically acclaimed debut album, Colour Trip, was released in February 2011 and a compilation of their early singles, Sparkler, which had initially been available in Japan only, was released in the autumn of 2011.

2011 saw them play across the globe, including a rapturously received show at this summer’s Fuji Rock Festival and a European support slot on last autumn’s Smashing Pumpkins tour. A full U.K. tour will be announced shortly.

Ringo Deathstarr are: Elliott Frazier (guitars & vocals), Alex Gehring (bass & vocals), Daniel Coborn (drums).
