Daily noise that works faster than any stimulant

Back in 1995 dance-acid-house-floor act BLACK GRAPE made you feel
e-tastic with their debut LP It’s Great When You’re Straight… Yeah.
The band featured happy mondays Shaun Ryder and Bez and rapper Kermit (Paul Leveridge). After second album Stupid Stupid Stupid the show was over until 2017 when they made a comeback with their 3rd full-length Voodoo Pop followed by another silence of 6 years.
They’re back once again, now minus Bez. Album number 4, baptized
ORANGE HEAD (reference to clown Donald Trump Dumbed?) will see
the day of light on November 3rd via DGAFF Recordings.
Press info: “‘Orange Head’ will still see both members capture their
iconic “cosmic musical jigsaw” like seen in their previous albums, and
deliver that same unique blend of “melding rock, hip-hop, acid house,
psychedelic pop and reggae”.
Pre-order info here.
Despite the release of last month’s new cut Pimp Wars the track
they now share, named MILK is announced as the lead single.
It’s a 24-Karat disco-rock blast. Ridiculously catchy and madchester
the 2023 way Ryder and Kermit are on a 24-hour party roll.
It’s black grape great to be straight again… YEAH.
Press play.
Bonkers time.
