Listen: ILLLS Announce Debut Album, Unveil ‘Out’ Track
Yucky Mississippi rockers are coming ‘Out’ with a debut LP in November.
Oxford, Mississippi’s ILLLS had an initial, exciting run last summer, releasing the ‘Dark Paradise’ EP on Sounds of Sweet Nothing. Following that they’ve gone hideaway, returning today with news of a debut full-length on New York label Aloe Music.
The project’s headed up by Steven Ross. Since 2012 the line-ups changed a fair bit, with ILLLS now being something primarily belonging to the brains of Ross.
If new song ‘Out’ is any indication, the ILLLS sound has gone muckier and more rooted in gritty grunge. As a preview for debut ‘Hideout From the Feeders’, it’s relentlessly fuzzy, fully-charged and fit to burst with gross energy.

ILLLS
Mississippi band’s queasy reputation precedes them. But they’re also backed up by a desire to make brilliant, oddball garage rock.
