WORDS FROM THE LABEL:

It's the fourth release by South London's Thee Alcoholics, It's their second 7", it's the 23rd and 24th tune in the band's short life - all on Wrong Speed. I was up in Bristol to see them in April 2023. I saw them in 2022. I've seen pictures and videos of them playing over the last year. It's a different line up EVERY TIME. Does it alter the aggro? Does it fuck. They're cynically nihilistic like him from Black Books, they rip a relentless jam like a No-Wave destructo outfit.

It's easy to name bands - The Fall, Suicide, Cows - but you gotta dig deeper and hear '90s Detroit Techno and the Motor City rippers of the 70s, from Stooges to Drexciya - you can hear 'em if you try.

The two tracks here swirl and spin around your head like you've just overdone the dose and you're lying on the sofa thinking you've totally fucked it and nothing is real and you can't work out if Snoop Dogg is you and you're in LA skipping over the unhoused folk that have slipped between the US cracks.

You ain't punk if you don't recognise the sleeve. You ain't punk if you think 7"s are done. This kills. 200 pressed, don't sleep.
