Learning Greek: Transparent Yellow Vinyl LP

Label: So Young
Release Date: 8th August
Humour balance the intensity, fury of hardcore punk with the cathartic shoegaze and indie rock melodies. All set to be one of the most definitive alternative records of 2025.
Glasgow's Humour announce their much-anticipated debut album "Learning Greek" (Produced by Idlewild's Rod Jones), landing August 8th on tastemaker label So Young Records. The 11 songs of "Learning Greek" combine lithe riffs, throat-stripping intensity and a crushing take on the fabled loud/quiet dynamic, with the record following two critically-acclaimed EPs from the band - 2022's "Pure Misery" and 2023's "A Small Crowd Gathered To Watch Me". Humour live together in Glasgow and formed across the lockdowns, writing and recording their material at home, with the music intended as a backdrop to Andreas Christoloudis' narrative-driven and often surreal lyrics. Sometimes they’re about letting people down, sometimes they’re about pets dying, sometimes they’re about trying to say something when you don’t have anything worth saying.
