This has just arrived at the studio. A reissue of one of my favourite albums of all time, augmented with the contents of three contemporary singles - all on a double LP. I look forward to listening to this remastered edition (and now on 12" #vinyl) #TheOrchids #Lyceum #SarahRecords

You can buy Let's Change direct from @lnfg.bsky.social LastNightFromGlasgow, or from all the usual places.

Here’s the fabulous swag I was lucky enough to be given last night - #TheOrchids Lyceum reissue is out soon and @precrecs.bsky.social can confirm when the #Blueboy live album is out. Hurray for both.

We mentioned a few days ago that we had visited the incredible Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre recently. What we didn't say was that we were actually shooting our next video.

be stand-alone singles on the grounds that anything else is just marketing. But, if you’re appalled, the CD is smaller.

For more objective thoughts, the link below is to a review at @normanrecords.com. Or the Bandcamp is here: circuitryrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/lyceum

Last Friday, the Great Orrery of Indiepop produced one of its more unlikely syzygies when no less than THREE records with Sarah connections ( #TheFieldMice, #TheOrchids, #Blueboy ) were released simultaneously (and quite coincidentally). [1/3]

Just for the record, Chris from The Orchids has confirmed that he did indeed play drums on Sensitive, at the New Morning in Paris in January 1990. There are a couple of photos in his reply to the Facebook version of this post: fb.watch/xY5aU0uWqO/

#thefieldmice #theorchids #sarahrecords

Unchartered Streets @uncharteredstreets.bsky.social · Feb 20

There was once a time you couldn’t walk into a pub in Camden without the wild-eyed gibbering husk of a drummer who’d once tried to play along with The Field Mice’s senses-pummelling masterpiece Sensitive grabbing your arm and screaming “It can’t be done! I’m a human being, not a drum machine!” [1/3]
