Does anybody still do stuff here?
The band played Psychobilly Freakout festival and had a great weekend. Never intended to be a Psychobilly band but the scene has adopted us and made us feel welcome, so what the hell! We’re the Spike Direction Effect: Psychobilly Adjacent Garage Blues!

bad news for Mamdani: i just imagined him shooting at my feet with two revolvers while shouting "dance! dance, ya varmint, dance!!" and then cackling so maniacally that his cowboy hat falls off. When will he go on TV to apologize for doing this

I firmly believe in letting people live their lives and do their thing, but I can’t cope with #glowup on BBC3. Every year there’s at least one MUA on there that looks like SGT. Kabukiman NYPD. And none of them pronounce ‘prosthetics’ correctly.

I was in London last night hanging about waiting for a train. There was a band playing on the corner, I’ve seen them there before ripping through rock covers with an appreciative crowd of about 25/30 people, they’re good! Round the corner, a couple of guys had set up a PA and were rapping. 🧵🪡 #music

Is it a bit Route One to cover Folsom Prison? Probably. But I like our interpretation, and it was for my Grandad who we just lost. Stay tuned for the #kazoo solo
