about

Tape II is the second release from mysterious South London collective/band/self-help group Thee Alcoholics.

Words from Wrong Speed HQ:

“The first Alcoholics tape sold out in 24 hours. They went from no one knowing them to sold out instantly. Chuffed to be doing the second. I would have thought another label would have leapt at them, their loss.

Tape II kills like the self-titled debut did. Fall / Chrome / Silver Apples style repetition meets Am-Rep-distorto-vocal noise rock. Bonus points for the horns on this, in places, from Colin Webster (Sex Swing), bringing that Stooges / Nation Of Ulysses squall that always announces the ruckus.
Rhys Llewellyn, drums from Hey Colossus, is the mastermind, you can hear that rhythmic swing. Makes you want to be at a basement show, 50 people, dark as hell, hot as hell, loud as hell. Makes you want to dance. Can you imagine No Fun, 1am, sweat pouring down the walls, that Godflesh-ian riff. God damn I should have made more than 50 of these. Don't hesitate”

I saw Haress support Godspeed in Coventry over the weekend and haven't been able to stop myself thinking about their set. It doesn't surprise me that they turn out to be from Bishop's Castle because this is what the welsh border sounds like. Uncanny, unsettling, beautiful. Wonderful discovery, SteveC
