The Drums debut album out today

One of the most eagerly-awaited debuts of the year is finally released today (June 7).

The Drums unveil their self-titled album on Moshi Moshi and Island records on a wave of critical acclaim and fan excitement.

The 12-track release, available on CD, digital download and 12ins vinyl and reviewed in the June issue of Brum Notes Magazine, was completed nearly five months ago by the much-hyped New Yorkers, who only played their first ever live show just over a year ago.

Breakthrough EP Summertime! followed for the quartet in October, who supported Florence and the Machine on her UK tour last month.
