Another slab of punk and mod infused tunes this time complete with homage to a revolutionary German writer, poetry from the east end, gentrification angst and DH Lawrence quotes. Why can’t all records be like this? It would make a fine present for those poor souls affected by the recent Panama papers….. Economy is out now in 7″, cassette and digital formats. Get it from here.

Given the depressing recent election result here in the UK, where we need to get back to a socialist labour party and not one that panders to the middle classes, petty nationalism and the Murdoch press, the timing of this album could not be more apt. That Petrol Emotion once sang “educate, antagonise, organise” and hopefully this album can be part of that rallying cry. I don’t do reviews anymore but if I did they would be like this. It’s out now as a 45rpm vinyl album via Future Perfect Records. Order it from here (US). Those in the UK … Continue reading Hard Left – We Are Hard Left

Hard Left feature members of Boyracer and Manatee and make one hell of a racket. Both sides of this extremely limited lathe cut 7″ sound like they were recorded in 1977 rather than 30 years plus later. Hard Left are a band somewhat pissed about politics and music. Angry and loud. Long live the revolution! Out now on Future Perfect including free digital download. Get it here. Facebook Continue reading Hard Left – Safety
