GULL, the "solo musical / visual art project" of Nate Rappole from Ultra Dolphins and Snack Truck, will release his debut 7" on Molsook Records in late July.

The label is promising a "unique style of mixing proggy space rock and Dischord-ish punk with Eastern styled vocal chants [creating] a driving atmospheric environment that sounds like Yes, Fugazi, Rush, and the Jesus Lizard in a drunken planetarium brawl. (Or in a Looney Tunes-animated opium den, you choose.)" The 7", recorded with Steve Roche (Neil Perry, Witch Hunt, the Saddest Landscape), will be pressed on three different color variations and include an MP3 download card. A preview is available on the label's MySpace page.

GULL last released the Bedouin Lover demo.

A preliminary tour routing has been planned, as well.
