SACRED001 Released October 5th 2009
Zodiac Youth - Gay Friend / Atmosphere (7" / Downloads)
We're delighted to announce our debut release, a double A-Side starring Zodiac Youth's brilliant "Gay Friend" and "Atmosphere".
Neither Mark Manning (aka Zodiac Mindwarp) or Youth (of Killing Joke infamy) require much introduction to anybody with an eye on the world of popular music these past three decades. Zodiac Youth sees these two wayward minds meld into one and take a new country punk rhythm and blues direction following a lengthy respite since their last psyke-trance incarnation. Their sound is fused by loose, heavy rhythms, spiky guitars, an angry blues howl and hooky choruses, not to mention some easy living arrangments and more than a little free(k) sax honking.
These new despatches are released on 7" vinyl in a hand numbered edition of 500 copies. Each copy is packaged in a hand stamped card "goodie bag" and accompanied by its own rune card (hand drawn by Mr Mindwarp himself), one five hundredth of an original Youth painting, lucky coins, tarot cards, erotica and various other trinkets and treats. Each edition is completely unique, personally crafted by the artists and a guaranteed future collectable.
