CTMF - Punk Rock Enough For Me (Ltd 7"/digi)
Wild Billy Childish & CTMF are back with a new 7” with 2 exclusive tracks. 'Punk Rock Enough For Me' is the A-side, it's a classic Childish composition giving you a long list of things that are 'Punk Rock' enough for him. The B-side features Ju Ju on lead vocals and it's a proper 1977 punk romp, reminiscent of Alternative TV at their best.
This is a limited edition pressing on brown vinyl.
The band are currently recording a few more tracks for their third album 'Acorn Man' which will be out on Damaged Goods later this year. Lookout for a more singles coming out around the world soon, Squoooge and Amphetamine Reptile for a start.
Billy recently featured in a great interview on a podcast with the good people at Retro Man Blog. You can listen to the interview in full by clicking on the banner below.
The Gaggers - Sharp Lies/Hostage (Ltd 7"/digi)
It’s a 2 track 7″, the A-side is from their second album ‘Blame You’ , the B-side is a non-album exclusive track called ‘Hostage’. London rippers the GAGGERS burst on the scene a few years ago with a gaggle of 7” that went in and out of print in a heartbeat. Dead Beat Records released the debut fulllength LP 'Rip You Apart' that screeched through 12 loud, fast and grimy scuzz punk classics that use snarling bouncy riffs and lewd, crude lyrics to carve out supremely awesome, mangled, degenerate sounds. Earlier this year, the band much-anticipated second fulllength ‘Blame You’ was released in Europe on Wanda Records and will get the American treatment this Autumn courtesy of Modern Action Records. From the opening caustic, cocky, chord the GAGGERS stab yers ears with ten tunes that chase each other out of your speakers, one as charming as the next, with tales of love, lust, nihilism and other such dandy daydreams that only the GAGGERS can
come up with. Channelling the same ragged, dysfunctional spit as the Pagans, early GG, the Heartbreakers, Weirdos and the Germs; the GAGGERS fully embrace their sloppy, shambolic ineptitude to puke out spastic, two-minute blasts of nihilistic three-chord brilliance. Gutter-chic at it's absolute finest.
