POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

GREY BRITAIN.

One of those collections that looks even better when you finally get the whole lot out together.

Vinyl, CDs, promos, test press, weird little bits and everything in between.

And yes, that’s the custom sleeve I made for the test press because leaving it in a plain sleeve felt criminal 😂

Still one of my favourite Gallows eras to collect.

What better day to post this than the day Gallows drop the remaster of London Is The Reason!

I wish I had a flyer for this, but this is one of the most insane lineups we ever had in Watford, especially considering every band on this lineup at the time were more or less unknowns.

What gets the 10 for Lags? What would you change? And is “Riff Barrage” the right trademark? 👇🐀

I wanna extend a massive thank you to all the players who have played across this next record. It wouldn’t be the record that it is without your input and help. 🌻

Venn Records does it best. Head honcho Lags dropped off another bundle of the blinding new album ‘Nice ‘n’ Rough’ by our favourite four-piece, Split Dogs. It is everything you would expect from the glam-punk rockers plus more. In the words of Iggy Pop, they are “the sound of trouble.”

Get your copy of the LP or CD with the stunning cover (looking fab Harry) in-store or online and check the band’s gig listings to catch them at a venue near you soon. Londoners, you can see them with Cock Sparrer in the Troxy on 12 December. They will play their headline show at the Garage on 27 February. See you there!

ARCHIVE SERIES • PART IV

Orchestra of Wolves: The Singles.

All together this time.

Getting the whole era out and laid down together like this is exactly why I started doing these archive posts. Although apparently I’ve now discovered there are still things I need 😂

The hunt never fucking ends.

“Not a reunion. Not a coincidence.”

Something’s moving.

13 pieces. Two iconic albums. One very familiar name.

Not a reunion. Not a coincidence.
