Thee Headcoats - In Tweed We Trust (Ltd. Col LP/CD/Digi)
**FINALLY OUT OF MOTH BALLS!**
**REISSUE OF THEE HEADCOATS' 1996 CLASSIC LP FEATURING SOME OF THEIR FINEST CUTS!**
**Click here for DuckEgg Blue vinyl LP**
Thee Headcoats were mainly Billy Childish (Git/Vox), Bruce Brand (Drums) and Johnny Johnson (Bass). They formed in 1989 after Billy's previous band Thee Mighty Caesers gave up the ghost. By 1992 they had already released something like six albums and 15 singles.
Lots more releases followed including this great LP In Tweed We Trust originally released in 1996, the follow up to the equally great Conundrum. Thee Headcoats carried on touring and releasing records in every corner of the world until mid 2000 when they called it a day.
During the '90's I must have seen them 60 times, I even went over to Japan with them in 1993. There was something really natural about them, no bullshit. We did the 'We hate The Fuckin' NME' single after NME journo Johnny Cigarettes walked out of their gig in Archway after insisting that he should get in for free as he was from the NME and then reviewing Thee Headcoatees by saying their was no girls in the band (he left before they came onstage!!)
The Shadracks - The Shadracks (LP/Digi)
MEDWAY GARAGE UPSTARTS! DEBUT LP!
The Shadracks are a three-piece rock n’ roll group hailing from Medway, Kent, with Babylonian overtones.
Drawing lyrics from the forgetfulness and lost hope the group aims to play 40 years in the past, but with modern precision. The origins of the group date back over 6 months when Huddie Shadrack and Ellisa Abednego had a brief encounter in deserted park land. With a sheared an interest in incompetent punk and beat music it became paramount that they form a group, and quickly. At that very moment they heard the dulcet twang of old onion strings being plucked in the near versinity. Scouring the herbaceous borders the two friends happened upon Elle Meshack, harp in hand. Could she fix them into shape?
The answer was ‘yes!’ So via a frosty garage in upper Strood The Shadracks’ sound came into being.
After just two rehearsals the cocky kids decided it was high time they recorded a daybut LP. And so it came to pass.
