And two years on from the release of their acclaimed debut album \u2018Love & Rage\u2019 the band recently announced their new mini-album \u201cThe Real Life Thing\u201d set for release on 5th\u00a0June (New Heavy Sounds).<\/p>\n
\u00a0Recorded at Bear Bites Horse Studio with Wayne Adams (Big Lad, Green Lung), \u201cThe Real Life Thing\u201d is the latest hardcore sonic missive from one of London\u2019s must-see bands, and it absolutely does not disappoint. Shooting Daggers are the real deal; the best, and most exciting and adventurous hardcore-inspired band in the country. A \u2018mini album\u2018. 7 songs and 20 minutes of driving rocket fuelled punk meets melody picking up from their debut to go further into their own space, featuring special guests in the form of \u2018The Menstrual Cramps’ and Dennis Lyxz\u00e9n from Refused.<\/p>\n
For new single My Oh My<\/strong> released at a time when the world feels dark and overwhelming, the band wanted to create a video that shows why it\u2019s important to remain hopeful. The band said:\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cFocusing on the beauty around us can help us feel grounded and reminds us to keep fighting for a better future and that, if we come together, real change is possible.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n With this video we wanted to capture the everyday beauty that surrounds us. Sal has this cool old handheld video camera that she brings with her every time we travel with the band to always filming around . The original idea was to use some of that footage to make the video but unfortunately we realised most of it was lost just a few weeks away from the deadline we had planned, so we had to think of a way to make it happen regardless.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n We filmed most of the main footage in one day, we met and went to all of our favourite spots. We were so lucky, it was a beautiful sunny day after weeks of rain, we ate delicious vegan food in the park and ended the day playing scrabble at the local pub. We had the best time making this happen. Raquel filmed most of the B roll, carrying that little camera around everywhere with her for a few days and trying to capture all the small, beautiful moments we encounter in daily life.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n There are so many little moments that can be easily missed, even simply on our way to and back from work, and it’s often because we\u2019re too busy looking at our phones or caught up in our own thoughts to truly appreciate them. We asked our friend Fernando J Martinez to bring our ideas and vision together, as we loved the work he did on our single Wipe Out, and again he didn’t disappoint!”<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThe Real Life Thing\u201d will be released by New Heavy Sounds on the 5th June 2026 in digital form, which can be pre-saved HERE<\/strong><\/a>, and on limited edition shiny black vinyl which you can pre-order HERE<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.livewiremusic.org \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" And two years on from the release of their acclaimed debut album \u2018Love & Rage\u2019 the band recently announced their new mini-album \u201cThe Real Life Thing\u201d set for release on 5th\u00a0June (New Heavy Sounds). \u00a0Recorded at Bear Bites Horse Studio with Wayne Adams (Big Lad, Green Lung), \u201cThe Real Life Thing\u201d is the latest hardcore […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2430927,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[25179],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2430926","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Shooting-Daggers-share-new-single-My-Oh-My-\u2014-LiveWire.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2430926","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2430926"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2430926\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2430928,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2430926\/revisions\/2430928"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2430927"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2430926"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2430926"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2430926"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
