Oxford pop punks Better Than Never‘s recently released EP, Head Under Water, is now streaming in its entirety; listen below. The effort arrived via Fox Records and is available for purchase on CD, cassette, and digital download. Frontman James Harris said of it:

“With this EP we really wanted to take everything we learnt from our last one and build upon the foundations we had made. It gave us some great opportunities to really push the three-guitar line-up and dual vocal front.

Early January will see the band touring their native U.K. on the Head Under Wa-Tour in support of the album. Joining them as support will be Highlives and The Holiday on select dates. Dates after the jump.
