Muncie Girls will release their hotly-anticipated second album 'Fixed Ideals' on 31st August via Specialist Subject Records in the UK & Europe, Buzz Records in North America and Lost Boy Records in Australia.
'Fixed Ideals' covers topics of anxiety and mental health, the effects of too much alcohol wasting potential, having a desire to learn and be educated, as well as focusing on personal relationships and the importance of friendship and family. And what we feel when those relationships let us down.
The first single from the record, 'Picture of Health', is an impossibly catchy slice of punk-driven melodic perfection, which was written when vocalist and guitarist Lande Hekt realised "how much easier it is to worry about your friends than it is to worry about yourself." NPR have said that the song is "Absolutely fetching...'Picture of Health' blast[s] out the gate with thunderous drum fills and arena-bopping riffs"
Muncie Girls' line-up is completed by guitarist Dean McMullen and
drummer Luke Ellis and the three grew up in Exeter, playing local DIY
shows to their friends, which is still something they enjoy immensely.
Since the release of their debut album 'From Caplan To Belsize' in 2016,
they've toured the UK & Europe extensively and they've performed in
Australia and Japan, as well as playing appearing at world-renowned
festivals such as SXSW, Glastonbury and Reading & Leeds.

Muncie Girls: Reading & Leeds Festivals
Watch Muncie Girls play 'Gas Mark 4' on the BBC Introducing stage at the Reading & Leeds.
"They look cute, but don't be fooled: Devon trio Muncie Girls are new wave punk rock to a tee. Since their presumably safety pinned beginnings, they've consistently created driving anthems which have careered them straight into a devout following. With their first full length record on the way, Muncie Girls are without doubt a name to reserve some D.I.Y. t-shirts for." - James Santer, BBC Introducing in Devon
