Siltbreeze SB-105

7"
£5.99


Limited two-track 7” in a run of 400 copies from this great band who manage to combine an almost classic 60s/70s rock/cowpunk delivery with a barbarous destructo edge, powerful vox and a recording aesthetic that would blow up the backline altogether, leaving a guitar banging a bunch of chords lifted straight from The Birthday Party and played early Rough Trade-style. A side is the raunch, the flip is more hypnotic and minimal. Both rule.

EXBX #67

LP
£12.99


Supremely crude LP from Tyvek, with original demos recorded in 2004 finally making it to wax in an edition of 500 copies with full-colour paste-on sleeves. If you dug the Blunt Instrumental EP that came out on Night People then this is another blast from that particular garage, with a fantastically primitive sound that explodes aspects of The Fall, early Redd Cross, The Rats and The Afflicted Man with all of the non-musicianly élan of your favourite DIY no count. I mean, I dig the Siltbreeze LP and all but this is my kind of meat. Highly recommended.
