Every Single Muscle (Vinyl LP, Opaque Blue)

Only seven months since the last one, The Bug Club announce Every Single Muscle, their fifth album and third for Sub Pop. Written in the gaps between relentless touring and stolen days back home in Caldicot, the record captures the Welsh duo poking at the absurdity of being human with deadpan humour and a touch of sci‑fi detachment. Across eighteen tracks bodies, boredom and identity are all fair game, delivered with that good ol' garage‑rock snarl. - Flying Out 

The Bug Club are back with a new album. It’s been a whole seven months since their last. Where have they been? Every Single Muscle, the band’s fifth LP overall, is the third to be released by the Welsh duo’s esteemed Seattle-based patrons Sub Pop. Since Very Human Features, which emerged in June of 2025, the non-stop tour has seen the BBC 6 Music and KEXP favourites ping-pong across the Atlantic like they used to the Severn Bridge. Various festival slots in the summer kept them from having any sort of holiday - who needs one when you live in Wales anyway? - until it was time to head back to the writing room. Which is most likely still a bedroom in Caldicott frequented by a greyhound called Ted (listen out - he shows up in one of the songs).
