Hamilton based punk quartet Mistake Us For Friends are happy to announce they have just signed to Glasgow record label Struck Dum Records.
The fast-paced melodic punk band have spent years building a committed fanbase in Glasgow, whilst dedicating time to secure their technical abilities as a group. After years of rehearsing, gigging, and a few demos later, the band finally took time to record a full length album. Struck Dum are set to release 'Kill The Composer' at the end of April, to be available online and in selected record stores.
