History

Supermilk released its first EP Hello? Yes this is Supermilk... in 2017 via Keroleen Records.[1] A second EP, Rare Delusions, followed in 2019.[2]

After the dissolution of Popyura's long term band Doe, Supermilk announced the release of its debut album[3] along with a live band featuring members of Personal Best, Colour Me Wednesday and Cheerbleederz.[4] Several shows were scheduled but later cancelled due to the global coronavirus pandemic.[5] The album, Death Is the Best Thing for You Now, was released on March 27th 2020.[6]

Unable to perform live due to the UK's COVID-19 restrictions, Popyura spent much of 2020 writing the project's second full-length album.[7] Recorded in December the same year with producer Rich Mandell of Happy Accidents, Four by Three was released via Specialist Subject Records on July 2nd 2021.[8] The album was placed at number 2 in Good Morning America's 50 Best Albums of 2021.[9]
