LIFE have announced plans to release new album ‘North East Coastal Town’ and have shared a taster from it with frenetic single ‘Big Moon Lake’.The Hull band will release their third LP on June 10, via Liquid Label. You can pre-order the record here.They also shared the video for their new single, which the band said “pays homage to 1980s Top Of The Pops“.“We wanted ‘Big Moon Lake’ to acknowledge the lyrical social commentary that was littered throughout our first two records whilst expanding the experimental and personal sound that you will hear throughout the new record,” says frontman Mez Green.“The track is playful and teases everyday themes of missing out, numbness, drinking, smoking and eating badly and generally wanting more for yourself in life. Its resolve being that in hindsight everything is in front of you, it’s on your doorstep and in this case that’s the wondrous county of Yorkshire.”It follows previous single ‘Friends Without Names’, which was released last November.Speaking about their new album, Green added: “Hull and the surrounding area runs through our DNA and has shaped us, weathered us, empowered us, embraced us and made us feel accepted.“‘North East Coastal Town’ is our love letter to the city.

A new public park with a ‘performance space’ is set to be built in Bolton town centre.
Images of how the new park, at the former Odeon cinema site on Ashburner Street and Blackhorse Street could look, have been published by Bolton Council this week.
The transformation of the derelict area, close to the town’s market hall and the site of the recently approved Moor Lane housing development, is part of ‘Towns Fund’ grants given to the authority by central government.
A design and access report in support of the plans, stated: “The proposals for the former Odeon cinema site look to bring green open space into the heart of Bolton; providing a park which is open, accessible, and welcoming for the community and visitors.
“The park will deliver a green space which ties in to a street upgrade on Ashburner Street, providing a complimentary and open frontage to this street, as well as Blackhorse Street and Back Spring Gardens.
“The boundaries of the park are typically open with a planted frontage between the street and the park to provide a soft edge.
“The park draws on the history of the site as a former Odeon cinema, re-using elements of red brick and steel beams from the former building and retaining these in the design.”
The report said that the park will provide a mix of flexible, open spaces with lawns, a performance area and a paved space with seating and picnic tables.
The northern half of the park will a softer landscape while the southern half of the park will feature more hard paving, centred around an open events space where stages or food trucks could be brought for temporary events such as music or drama performances or food fairs.
Around the events space will be areas of seating to form a picnic and gathering area
