Love Rarely – release their debut album ‘Pain Travels’ + video for ‘Haunted’

Exciting newcomers Love Rarely, today release their utterly brilliant debut album ‘Pain Travels, through Big Scary Monsters.Coming from the vastly prolific Leeds music scene, the bands volatile hybrid of math rock, emo, and hardcore have helped blend together one of the most refreshing and thrilling sounds from a new band in the UK. 

A brand new video for lead track ‘Haunted’ is also out today, and is taken from ‘Pain Travels’. This follows on from the first single released ‘Will’, which was highlighted by the likes of The Guardian, NME, Crack Magazine and Kerrang! in their tracks of the week playlists.

Having already and rapidly carved out a reputation as one of the UK’s most emotionally fearless math-rock outfits, the five-piece have been redefining what vulnerability can sound like within heavy music. Weaving angular, technically demanding melodies with an unflinching lyrical openness that refuses to shy away from life’s darker corners. They balance intricate, off-kilter guitar work with cathartic explosiveness, creating sonic terrain that feels deeply human.

The debut album ‘Pain Travels’, captures the fullest picture of who Love Rarely have become. Shaped over the course of a year in spare bedrooms and improvised recording spaces, the record chronicles the band’s collective experience of family trauma, toxic households, and the complexity of navigating adulthood with scars that shape but no longer define them.
