Album Notes & Community Reviews

Continuing their long-standing tradition of chronicling mundane British life with razor-sharp wit, the Merseyside veterans deliver an unpolished, highly literate collection of indie rock. The record relies on sarcastic, satirical lyricism juxtaposed against catchy folk-punk arrangements to skewer modern pop culture.
