Shit & Shine
Cherry

A Norman Records recommendation (22nd May 2008)

This record left our Ant feeling ecstatic.

Shit And Shine's ace 'Cherry' album is now available on CD and it's a right old bonanza of heavy pounding military drums, cool dialogue samples and noise. It's had a few comparisons to the Butthole Surfers and I reckon that's not a bad reference point.Both Phil and I enjoyed seeing these live and then Brian went to see them the other night and thought they were awesome. He's been going to loads of gigs recently. You might have seen him bouncing off the walls with a pint in his hand. He's the one with the "I'm with stupid" T-shirt and the "I shot J.R" baseball cap. This comes with a DVD which "features a pro-shot 35 minute performance recorded for last.fm in London November 2007" had I have known they were gonna put out a DVD I wouldn't have bothered going to the gig. I could have just stayed at home and watched this on the couch in my undies eating my Weetabix.

What the press have said about ’Cherry’ so far...
"The kind of deranged collage that damaged psychedelic warriors like The Butthole Surfers or Bongwater used to come up with. Its an album that defies any kind of neat summation. Immense!" The Wire
"Not since Royal Trux and ’Twin Infinitives’ has any band released an album as recklessly inventive and sadistically fun as this greasy double helping" Rock-A-Rolla
"Absurdist, addictive, obnoxious and usurped by a general air of alcoholic wrongdoing, feral psychosis and unsettling malice. A murkier, down-the-pub ’Locust Abortion Technician’ for a 21st century world hurtling ever closer to
bloody-minded oblivion" Terrorizer
