Belfast quartet Junk Drawer are new to us and have announced their debut album Ready For The House, out via Irish indie label Art For Blind.

Channelling the likes of Pavement, Silver Jews, Beak> and more, the four-piece veer between slacker-rock, post-punk, krautrock and swirling psych across seven sprawling, chaotic vignettes of personal malady and recovery.

Here are a couple of lyrically deft tracks to savour – you can purchase the album from Bandcamp.

On the night of crooked half-lies,
you stayed a while to catch unknown eyes.
I turned to my conscience who wiped away the sweat
and I was told he must be better off having not met me yet
