After a few weeks off to recharge our batteries we are back with two brand new releases on 10th and 17th January..
We kick of the new year with a new single from The Get.
The Get are a band from Southend On Sea. The main songwriter is Gary Smith who is also a member of another band on the label Angry! Vocals and lyrics are provided by Bruce Gordon who is also the partner in crime of Toska Wilde as Brucie Bitch. Drums are provided by Jon Smith .Bass, Keyboard and Production is from Jordan Ayriss
Their release is called “Genre Reassignment” and consists of three new songs and one which appeared on our recent charity album “Off The Leash”.
Unashamedly lo-fi the quartet distill the spirit of punk into short pithy songs covering everyday occurrences and foibles.
This is a digital only release which will be available from Bandcamp, Spotify, You Tube etc from 10th January
Our release for January 17th is from The Screaming Love Collective.
It is their 11th release with us and follows on from last years “Do What You Love”.
The Screaming Love Collective are a psychedelic punk rock dark disco groove sensation – they take electronic dance music and add some extra layers from a variety of other genres to create an infectious and sometimes dangerous aural cocktail.
Sounds vary between motorik dance repetition via mutant reggae/dub, hypnotic arpeggiating, grime leaning sonic attacks and slow funky workouts and even a little bit of post-punk.
The new album is called Human Traces and is a digital only release – it comprises 11 brand new tracks. Here’s a taster……
It will be available from Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple Music and all of the other digital outlets.
Bryn from The Screaming Love Collective will be appearing on the drum stool with The Mind Sweepers on the following dates:
In addition to the above further releases are already planned for the next few weeks
We are pleased to announce the pre-release of the new album from The Screaming Love Collective with immediate access to stream/download the track “Hard Light”.
The album will be released on March 1st
