Codex Teenage Premonition by The Fire Engines

5...according to our on Mon 27 Nov, 2006.

Jesus. Domino are squandering all those $Franz$ (tm) on the scrapings from Fire Engines toilet bowl circa '81. Literally. It's an admiral job to attempt the re-master of some deteriorated demo & live material & perhaps a vital historical document to those scratchy, angular days but you used to pick up tapes of this quality a few years back for one & a half quid!!! If yer gonna push sub-standard audio then charge a respectful mid-price for it! This, however, is amazing cowbell shagging, uber-twangy, shouty & above all, very wiry new wave circa Josef K. I hope they're gonna dig out the tracks that were on Rev-ola's 'Fond' round up of a decade ago. Now that was a worthy anthology & a fitting tribute to Henderson & co.
