THEE SPIVS – FLICKIN V’S

Latest single by Thee Spivs taken from their recent ‘Black And White Memories’ album with an exclusive B-side, a cover of Patrick Fitzgerald’s “Safety Pin Stuck In My Heart”. Lovingly pressed on traditional black vinyl.

LIMITED TO 500 COPIES!

Both tracks were recorded at Gizzard studios with Ed Deegan at the controls.
The band have had successful jaunts to Europe earlier this year and are heading back again in July for more! On top of this they’re also making their debut appearance at the famous Rebellion Punk Festival in Blackpool in early August, more details to follow.
Thee Spivs are Ben Edge (Guit/Vox), Steve Coley (drums) and new bassist Daniel Husayn (who you may know from The Red Dons)
Flickin V’s is already a live favourite and is set to become an anthem for disaffected youth worldwide. The cover features Ben’s uncle, who you may have heard about on their first album. He’s the one with ASBO. We can’t think why!”

The sessions mastered here from Endless Column are going to be released as two 7″s on Taken By Surprise / Twintoe Records and Erste Theke Tonträger.

Taken from the Erste Theke Tonträger website:

“Douglas Burns was in the Observers. Douglas Burns wrote the Observers records, so What’s Left Now? Besides, Red Dons – Douglas Burns is now in Endless Column. And Endless Column are just like his other Bands – Beautiful!

But how this Band started? Doug told me: “David Wolf (Daylight Robbery/Pedestrians) & I wanted to do a project together. We decided that over the course of last summer we would write and record some songs together before I moved away from Chicago. He had an old 4-track that he was itching to use, so we recorded everything on that. Eric Watts joined the project on drums. At the end of the summer we wanted to play a show. So, Jim McCann (Tyrades) joined us and we recorded this demo and played our one & only show.”
So thats it! enjoy this perfect mixture of Red Dons + Daylight Robbery Songwriting, i love it!!!”

“San Francisco punk outfit Synthetic ID released their self-titled debut EP back in February on Cut The Cord That… Records, ripping through three tracks in six minutes flat with what is a beautiful cacophony of raw, frenetic guitars, fiercely pounded drums, and jerky yet oddly melodic vocals.

After cutting their original demo (via) last year, the band had it mastered by Daniel Husayn of Hajji Husayn Mastering in London (Husayn is also bassist for Portland-born punk act The Red Dons), and the result is stunning. Check out “Throwaway”, the record’s third track, a spasmodic reminder to stay humble:

Synthetic ID is playing four upcoming shows in the Bay Area, including gigs at Bottom of the Hill (supportingTerry Malts) and the Hemlock (opening for Uzi Rash and Austinites The Young), as well as an all-ages show at Oakland’s 1 2 3 4 Go! Records. Check out full details after the jump, and then grab a copy of their EP eitherdigitally or on 7″ vinyl.
