Often overshadowed by its neighbours further along the M62, it’s precisely because of this that Leeds’ music scene is as vehemently independent and self-sufficient as it is.\u003cbr\u003e The latest band to emerge from the city are four-piece English\u003cbr\u003eTeacher. Keeping Leeds’ longstanding tradition of uncompromising post-punk alive, the quartet’s latest single ‘R\u0026amp;B’ is three minutes of clattering bass and crisp percussion, sporadic guitar occasionally punctuating the tension as frontwoman Lily Fontaine explores ideas of imposter syndrome and lethargy throughout the creative process.\u003cbr\u003e Lethargic is one thing ‘R\u0026amp;B’ isn’t, however. Fraught and frantic perhaps. Imbued with a dry wit and self-awareness certainly,\u003cbr\u003ebut no one’s about to level any accusations of indifference at English Teacher. The band explain, “[the song] is about the cyclical, productivity-diminishing paradox of low self-esteem and imposter syndrome-induced writer’s block that then fuels low self-esteem and imposter syndrome. It’s also about racial identity and putting the love that you have to offer a potential romantic partner back into yourself.”\u003cbr\u003e Harbouring a cloying sense of paranoia that only increases as the track progresses, there are elements of bands such as Slint and Sonic Youth at play. Rather than feel like a ‘90s throwback, however, ‘R\u0026amp;B’ succeeds feeling not just contemporary but vital. Providing both a short, sharp gut punch and insight into Leeds’ ever-growing indie scene.\u003cbr\u003e Recently supported Sports Team on tour.\u003cbr\u003e Dan Carey is set to produce a forthcoming album and also plans to release a single on Speedy Wundergound.\u003cbr\u003e Radio - Radio 6 playlist, Radio 1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklisting\u003cbr\u003eR\u0026amp;B\u003cbr\u003eWallace\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nice Swan Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41073290051740,"sku":"NSWN050","price":8.91,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/NSWN050.jpg?v=1634108054"},{"product_id":"english-teacher-the-worlds-biggest-paving-slab-7-vinyl","title":"English Teacher - The World's Biggest Paving Slab [7\" Vinyl]","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: 7\" Vinyl, Coloured\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue No.: 5825756\u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 0602458257564\u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 15 Sep 2023\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Indie\/Alternative\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe World's Biggest Paving Slab' on limited press 7\" vinyl.
