A re-issue of one of our favourite early releases and a rather overlooked classic album, a one off collaboration between Billy Childish and legendary Medway folkies The Singing Loins. This was recorded in 1993 when Billy was in Thee Headcoats and The Singing Loins were in their first incarnation. The Singing Loins formed in late 1990, a two piece band playing Authentic raw folk from the Medway Delta. They are Chris Broderick on Vocals / Stick and Chris Arfur Allen on Guitar. They had recorded two classic albums before this both of which were released on Billy¹s own Hangman records.The album features a few Childish classics reworked including You Make Me Die and Every Bit Of Me as well as 4 tracks written by Billy & The Loins especially for this album. The Singing Loins are still going strong today after taking a break for a few years before reforming in 2004. They released a brand new album in 2005 called Songs To Hear Before You Die (Damgood 247CD) and a double CD compilation of all their early work called The Complete Singing Loins (Damgood 231CD).
