Heyo, we're playing @nice_n_sleazy tonight with @theslackhead and The Folk Drama (@MrAaronWright) - doors at 8. New music from us tonight and to come - here's the cover for our new album, Poundstore Diabolism. Album 2 of 6 in 2025... Ball's in your court, @kinggizzard ;)
Some lovely words from perennial tastemakers @Joyzineuk about our album, Greek Active: joyzine.org/2025/03/31/tra… - if you're not aware of Joyzine, check out the site (a great place to find out about cool new stuff while it's still bubbling under)
New video from us, using some footage of Greg when he was but a child. LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE ETC youtu.be/knu1tZNUeW4
Episode 4 of the 'Band That Time Forgot' podcast - video version: youtu.be/Si-GqRhJM7U
Our new album is out now: album.link/i/1797179711 Thanks to everyone who helped put it together. Give it a look - a share or a comment would also help here or elsewhere. We’re really proud of it, want as many people to hear it as it can find!
Another track from the vault with a tasty new mix: youtu.be/Bq9dVNgHy50
New podcast episode out now, yT and spotify versions available: youtube.com/watch?v=g2PoBv…
Wee video from our show at @thegladcafe before christmas, with @themartialarts and Bobby King. Thanks to the Glad for having us, and to everyone that came along. youtu.be/eWVpuk62gYE
15th anniversary remix of our track, False, from our 2010 album Retina (or More Fun Than a Vat of Love). Really delighted with the new mix and master on this by Cara South. More to come! youtu.be/u7xvw2JfoHs
Episode two of our video podcast is out now: youtu.be/rGFjIttkzng - check it out here, and give us a wee subscribe if you can (we need to give youtube's algorithm a gentle backrub.)
Tonight! We're playing @thegladcafe with @themartialarts
[3/3] And if you can't make tomorrow, but happen to find yourself in Cumbernauld on Saturday, we're playing the free daytime @MugStock event at the Mugshack in The Centre with @RoryBorealis4 and Eve Davidson. We're on at the back end but pop along for the rest of the festivities!
[2/3] And if you're in Glasgow tomorrow night, come on down to @thegladcafe for our show with @themartialarts and Bobby King. First full band live show in a hot minute for TMA, and Bobby's first solo gig for even longer, so definitely worth your crisp tenner.
The first episode of our new podcast, The Band That Time Forgot, is out now on youtube. If you enjoy it, forgive the cliché, but a wee like, subscribe and all the usual noise really helps us out. Featuring guest appearances from @themartialarts and others! youtu.be/TtodrruWat4?si…
Not long now to joint TMA + @howtoswim album launch! Glasgow music stalwart + @playpiececlub DJ Rowan spinning tunes in the main bar from 9! FRIDAY 20 DECEMBER / @thegladcafe @wiaiwya 👇 see 👇 for tickets! 👇
