New Single From Screaming Females

The ever wonderful Screaming Females are back with Ancient Civilization, from their split 7″ with Wisconsin’s Tenement, out now on Recess Records. Setting off like a Ennio Morricone bad acid trip, the track bursts into bleakly nihilistic life about 30 seconds in and then carries you through another five minutes of savage, uncompromising brittle punk rock. Marvellous. Buy it from the label here, and pick … Continue reading New Single From Screaming Females

And now you can have Eagulls rather natty take on the aforesaid, doom laden classic. Altogether now: Man watching city fall The clock keeps on ticking He doesn’t know why He’s just cattle for slaughter [Or download via Rolling … Continue reading Eagulls Cover Killing Joke
