Medictation - Warm Places [ORANGE VINYL] – New LP

Members of Leatherface & The Sainte Catherines, Medictation present their debut album. "Dickie Hammond's (Leatherface) untimely and recent passing shook not only those closest to him but also the punk world as a whole, such was his influence and the positive impact that he had on the community. Whilst most of us are familiar with the majority of Dickie's works, his final pieces have not been released, until now. Much like the original Little Rocket Dickie Hammond (Leatherface/Medictation guitarist) left us too soon. One small solace was the fact that shortly before his passing he played a key role in writing and recording the debut Medictation LP 'Warm Places', being his final works.The album was initially scheduled to be released on vinyl through Paper + Plastic in January 2016 but pressing delays meant that the record was never physically produced. That's where we came in. Dead Broke is proud to present the North/South American version of Medictation's, "Warm Places."

Following the demise of Leatherface in 2013, Dickie Hammond and Graeme Philliskirk (also of Leatherface) joined Hugo Mudie, Fred Jaques and Julien Blais (all of Montreal, Canada's The Sainte Catherine's) to form Medictation.

Medictation went on to record their debut LP "Warm Places", which was due to be announced early last year before the aforementioned events overtook. Now (following the blessings received from Dickie's mother and son), Medictation are able to release and share Dickie's final works.
