Description :IN THEIR OWN WORDS: Our crummy band is called WORKIN' MAN NOISE UNIT. Apostrophe, no G. (Yeah, all the good names were taken, OK.) From Reading, UK. We are drums, noise, bass, guitar, vocals, sound, energy, bad jokes, the smell of stale beer on sticky floors. Break out a cold one or two, hit a few chords, see how it sounds. Live, tonight, not sold out. Since 2010.

THE BLURB: Knocking around the UK underground toilet scene for the past 4 or 5 years, Reading's WORKIN' MAN NOISE UNIT have been busy playing countless gigs, releasing limited run tapes/singles and making a nuisance of themselves on postage stamp sized stages around the country. Along the way they've picked up some fans, including the likes of Julian Cope who dragged them to London to perform at one of his book launches, and have shared stages with plenty of the current UK underground Mafioso including Hey Colossus, The Unit Ama, Good Throb, Carlton Melton, Terminal Cheesecake, the Wharves, Sly & the Family Drone, Grey Hairs, Gum Takes Tooth, Art of Burning Water, Henry Blacker, Perspex Flesh, Wolf People etc

SOME OF THE THINGS THIS RECORD IS ABOUT: Most of the songs on this record are pretty self-evident. Creepin' Round is about feeling like an outsider. Smoke Like Hell is about choosing immediacy, choosing the ‘right now'. Jammer is sorta the same except it's got a beady eye on what you might call ‘basic shamanism', you know… Cruisin' the IDR is about Reading's Inner Distribution Road, which is a concrete blanket that snakes around the centre of the town, holding Reading in a sort of permanent stranglehold. It's been there since the late 60s and it's ugly to look at. Part of the IDR has big concrete walls and all you can see whilst driving through these sections is tarmac, concrete and, if you look up, sky. We drive around it a lot. Cruisin' the IDR is the closest thing we will ever get to a ‘hometown' song. Yeah, I was Hypnotised is about fascination with the atomic bomb, particularly the ubiquitous ‘mushroom cloud' image but also the small matter of the human race making this thing in order to destroy itself en masse. Hate It is about apathy and feeling powerless to change owt going on. It's also about recognising that apathy and trying to get yourself going, find a way through it. And about lying to yourself.
