Drew Donaldson I've been anticipating this album for a while now and it doesn't disappoint. Short, sharp bursts of fuzzy punk goodness, splattered with incisive, occasionally bat s**t crazy lyrics. Love it. Favorite track: Miranda.

There's an itch I can't scratch I can't reach on my back that proves God doesn't exist i mean Hell knows. If he does then surely he designed us quite poorly with inadequate number of elbows. One seems to be fine a good deal of the time until unreachable itches persist. and if not another then there should be some cover from more extendable, bendable wrists. The Atheist's Itch!

about

We were stupidly excited to be invited to play Rebellion festival off the back of our debut gig at Blyth Power's Ashes in August 2019.
We then played a fifteen minute set for my wife's 50th birthday in October and another 15 minutes at our friends' wedding in November. Then covid-19 happened.

So with an hour of live gigs under our belt and our future live appearances scuppered we turned our attention to buying two ancient digital 4-tracks and elusive zip drives.

We recorded these tracks in our separate houses connected by a ten minute cycle ride with a zip disc in the back pocket. The zip was dropped off and picked up from Steve's garage in order to share tracks but not the same breathing space.

Our original intention was to release the album on the weekend of Rebellion , but our friend Andy said he could make our rough mixes sound clearer, and showed us that he could quite convincingly.

He then took the mixes from The New Forest in Hampshire, where he was locked in with his dear old mum, to London and Paris, where he is trying to live, and re-mastered them.

And so after six months, five postal districts across two countries, with equipment from a further two countries and four decades, we bring you these sixteen tracks in thirty two minutes.

"makes me ashamed of all the 5 minute plus songs I'm planning for the next CD!" - Joseph Porter (Blyth Power).
