Spinout Nuggets is a label which releases high quality music by bands they love in small portions on their most popular format: 7″ vinyl singles.  It’s a label of affection, aiming to supply lovely, old school artefacts for connoisseurs & collectors. While aesthetically pleasing to take a look at, you simply must play this vinyl to loss of life, says Ged Babey. 

If you’re studying this you understand all about who “The King of Storage Rock” Billy Infantile and Purveyors of Punk Rock For Gents’, The Fallen Leaves are and the fabulous label bringing out these releases.

The Man Hamper Trio embrace James Taylor from the Prisoners and JTQ on Hammond organ. and confusingly he additionally appears to be in CTMF for the needs of this single, which is totally different variations of the identical music, one with a vocal and one with out.

The Man Hamper Trio present low finish, blues-infused, instrumental mayhem, for these unafraid of a big chimney stack maybe falling and crushing their new automotive, or a minimum of most rhythm ‘n’ punk.

This fully-loaded twin-spin single affords two renditions of Billy’s ‘100 Yds Of Crash Barrier’, offered by two of the main ensembles energetic on the present moronic music scene.

The music, 100 Yards of Crash Barrier first appeared on the the 2020 William Loveday Intention album Will There Ever Be A Day You’re Hung Like a Thief and is a narrative from Billy’s childhood about when his drunken father got here house, ‘declared struggle’ on his household and took younger William out in his automotive.  Writing it off drunk driving and  ‘taking out’ 100 yards of crash barrier on a close-by highway.

I described the music earlier than as ‘top-of-the-line issues Infantile has written– retelling the story of his fathers abuse however this time full of images and metaphor.  I used to be born a sickly value to that faulty king..’

The CTMF model is slower and a few verses are omitted, however it’s nonetheless a strong music – and one the place the music weirdly replicates the motion associated within the lyrics: the organ swirls and swells sounding like a automotive accelerating, braking and skidding.

Billy has been enjoying low-key Medway gigs with the Singing Loins in an acoustic uncooked people type of late.  I hope he brings CTMF to the stage once more quickly, as a result of he can nonetheless make spectacular storage rock’n’roll noise like this when he chooses. An incredible Billy Infantile (with family and friends) single.

The Fallen Leaves then again by no means cease enjoying dwell and typically battle to copy the sheer magnificence of their exhibits on report.  That mentioned, they’ve by no means made a nasty album, though the dwell LP Most Minimal – Dwell on the Hope and Anchor arguably is the definitive disc.

Stewart Lee within the Sunday Occasions succinctly described them as ‘Pop Punk Perfection’. That’s proper, mentioned The Fallen Leaves.

The Fallen Leaves don’t do cowl variations. Nonetheless they freely draw from the perfect of music influences and literary geniuses, and put on them as proudly as their stage garments. What different Punk/Mod/Storage/Beat group may pay homage to: The Who, The Ramones, The Velvet Underground, The Shadows of Knight, Charles Bukowski and Gustave Flaubert, whereas sounding precisely like The Fallen Leaves.

The Fallen Leaves are a Group, not a band and The Fallen Leaves play ‘exhibits’, by no means gigs!

The Fallen Leaves have been honoured to play with a few of their 60’s r’n’b heroes equivalent to The Fairly Issues and Downliners Sect and ‘Rosalina’ from their new double A Aspect single is an homage to that sound.

Over on the flip facet ‘Keep’ comes on just like the Stones on sulphate, propelled by a basic Symmons riff, and thunderous bass and drums from former Chords drummer, Brett ‘Buddy’ Ascott and returning Leaf bassist, Gareth ‘Mountbatten’ Evans.

The Fallen Leaves are thrilled that this killer double A single is being launched by the mighty Spinout Nuggets, one of many best impartial labels within the UK.

No apologies for quoting wholly from the press launch.  I’m saving my phrases of knowledge for the forthcoming album, Easy Songs For Complicated Folks and it says every part you must know.

Easy Songs carried out to perfection and captured fantastically for seven inches of vinyl by essentially the most suave gents to ever grace a stage on your storage punk delectation.
