What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our Phil feeling ecstatic.

Whenever we get a new single by Billy Childish I'm always thinking that I want it to be single of the week. I mean you've heard one of his records and you've pretty much heard 'em all. That didn't stop me from buying far too many of his records mind you. How many of his 3 chord wonders do you need? Well I need loads of 'em. Thatchers Children is his latest punk opus which is bursting with attitude and those guitar riffs you've heard before a million times. This has some female vocals in the background which add a new dimension to the balls out punk rock. The flipside has Julie Nurse singing a new tune called Transition Girlfriend' which is exclusive to this release. I think I might prefer this to the A side. Fuck, this is a good single.

What the label says:

Taken from the forthcoming album ‘Thatcher’s Children’ (Damgood 313) this is a limited edition black vinyl 7” featuring an alternative, exclusive non album version of “Thatcher’s Children”. The flip side ‘Transition Girlfriend’ is also exclusive to this release.The cover has been designed by James Cauty, James also does art alongside Billy & others at London’s Aquarium Gallery and was half of the KLF ‘Transition Girlfriend’ features Nurse Julie on Vocals, she’s also singing lead on two more tracks on the album.Every 5 years or so Billy Childish is sited by the current top band as the embodiment of rock ‘n’ roll integrity, and every 5 years or so Billy splits his group up and starts again from scratch. With his latest combo, The Musicians of the British Empire, Billy carries on his tradition of home made punk and rhythm and blues. This is what a real rock ’n’ roll group sounds like
