| DESCRIPTION | ||
 | SHIT AND SHINE Cherry Label : Riot Season Year : 2008 Format : CD+DVD Style : Rock Availability : In stock Price : 10.60 € - BUY | |
| Description : | Shit and Shine isn't a band, it's a state of mind. They are an afternoon spent tearing up betting-slips at the bookies. A stain on your shirt that won’t wash out. Shit and Shine refuse to be categorised, commodified or caught with their trousers down. They are a blurred snapshot of bi-polar Britain, camera-phone footage of a nation that is slowly swallowing itself whole, one mouthful at a time. They are a requiem for back-street cafes and grubby little places that now only exist in our memory or in back-issues of Savage Messiah magazine. They are a brittle, defiantly distorted soundtrack to our own cultural demise: time at the bar, gentlemen, please! Shit and Shine do not make records, they make accusations, threats and intimidating phone-calls. Albums sell out in a day or maybe they were never even released. Press-releases come with grainy, badly photocopied pictures of band-members, their faces resembling some freakish Fotofit identity parade, while YouTube is awash with dodgy-looking live clips shot in cellar-bars or at some Argentine Noise fest. Their new album 'Cherry' has been deliberately released to coincide with the clocks going back. It is a sullen, grimy and spiteful LP, full of piss and vinegar and drums. Imagine an after-pub punch-up in A&E with the Burundi Drummers, or the Butthole Surfers if they had gone to primary school in Harlesden. It is petty, vicious stuff and, like its magnificently delinquent predecessor, '“Jealous of Shit and Shine', it is available from the ever-reliable, forward-thinking Black Country label Riot Season. 'Cherry' is a treasure-trove of dark, malignant delights that finds the band augmenting its trademark Neo-Brutalist sound with a whole bunch of unexpected textures. The album is a full-on essential purchase for anyone who is ever loved raw Outsider Music, Free Noise, Hardcore Punk, Barbarian Rock or underground experimental shit of any size, shape or hue. Trust me, it is a total gotta-have for Doom Metallers, Sludge Addicts, Japrock Fetishists, Xtreme Drone Geeks or anyone who ever chased a rabbit down a hole. | |
