Following their 2018 self-titled debut, The Magic Gang are about to release their sophomore effort. The album. Death Of The Party, is set to be released on 15 May. First single Think was a great Northern soul pastiche with ‘Style Council’ written all over it. But not wasting any time, the band quickly release single #2, which shows another side of their musical spectrum.

What Have You Got To Lose is a spiky, punchy indie-pop stomper. It finds bassist Gus Taylor delivering stream-of-consciousness lyrics over spiky, dark guitars and a throbbing bassline.
