Frank From Blue Velvet – S/T [IMPORT] – New LP

Regular price $ 12.00 $ 0.00
The East Sussex alt-country provocateurs head off on a German tour with Peter & The Test Tube Babies in December and we wanted to make something special to sell on the road. The artwork is sublime from cover to tarot card inner not to mention the coordinated pink blue splatter vinyl.  A Hastings based band merging big film scores, jangling guitar riffs and dancing swing beats. Songs that paint vivid pictures of corruption, redemption and flawed individuals. Misfits, oddballs and broken toys. Lyrically the subject matter is always dark with a taste of the macabre, dealing with the frailty of the human condition and the devils and angels sitting on everyone’s shoulders.

The ambition was grand, with choirs, pedal steel, banjo, brass, clarinets, violins all being added to the heady mix of alt-country, chain gang gospel, post punk and heavy roots. The band threw everything at their endeavor. For a band who started with the sole intention of playing a few parties, it was never the plan to record an album, but now it was happening Frank From Blue Velvet were going to make damn sure it was something to be proud of.
