about

Debut album from Wakefield's biggest slackers. It's been 15 years before we bothered to do it and taken us 2 years to complete. Drums recorded in 3 sessions and much experimenting with sounds and words to top it all off. It's a collection of old and new stuff that hopefully encapsulates the Me And My Mates sound, which is a mixture of 80s thrash without the satanism or screeching, punk from DKs to NoFX and bits of jazz & funk that we encountered on the way.
In general song forms are twisted so choruses are not regular occurrances. The lyrics are shared in jokes of the Laird brothers and you probably had to be there to get any of them. I guess this is not selling this album to you but it's really not that bad and will hopefully make you happy if it doesn't make you mentally ill!!
Enjoy!
