(LP (with digital download card) / Digipak CD) IHP 015-3/2
(Release date: November 18th)
The ANGELIC UPSTARTS are back with a bang !
With their current s line up, consisting of Mensi (vocals), Neil Newton (guitar), Dickie Hammond (guitar), Gaz Stoker (bass) and Andrew Laing (drums), who also plays drums in Cockney Rejects, they just recorded six new songs, co-wrote by Mensi and Neil.This is the first material recorded in over a decade and will be featured on the upcoming ANGELIC UPSTARTS / CRASHED OUT split-album, due to be released on I Hate People Records in November 2011.
The ANGELIC UPSTARTS and CRASHED OUT are good friends with each other and both come from the North East of the UK. So, having previously toured together, it was decided that the next step should be to record a new album together. So each band recorded six new songs, making a dozen tracks in total. This is how the title of the split album came about, “The Dirty Dozen”.Writing for the UPSTARTS’ contribution to the album began just over a year ago and was a long distance affair. Mensi was living overseas at that time, so he emailed lyrics to Neil, who then wrote the music (an exception to this is a track on the album which Neil and Dickie co-wrote). Once Mensi was back in the UK, the band entered Trinity Heights Studio to record their half of “The Dirty Dozen” with Fred Purser (ex Penetration) manning the control desk. A special guest also appears on the album; a certain Mr Decca Wade! The result is six new ANGELIC UPSTARTS songs. The first new material to have been recorded in over ten years! The new tracks bear the hallmarks of classic ANGELIC UPSTARTS songs but with a modern edge, both lyrically and musically. Mensi still writes it and sings it like he means it, be in no doubt about that!Finally, once released, the ANGELIC UPSTARTS and CRASHED OUT will set out on a joint tour to promote the new split album. It is expected that the tour will be throughout much of Europe and the U.S. and discussions are also taking place regarding a visit to Japan. Tracklist:ANGELIC UPSTARTS:

(Release date: November 04th)
DER V8 WANKERS-Fronter LÄSST DIE PETTICOATS FLIEGEN!!!!Egal ob auf dem Kirchenklo, dem Dixi oder in der Hecke - bei WYLDFYRE dreht sich einiges ums Bier. Es sei denn, die Hell's Angels servieren Rotwein. Mit den V8 WANKERS hat sich Sänger Lutz Vegas nicht nur in der nationalen Schweinerock-Szene einen durchaus respektablen Namen erspielt. Aber was macht der Mann, wenn ihm Bier, Autos, Frauen und die eigene Band nicht mehr genug sind? Ganz klar, er bringt eine weitere Combo an den Start und macht auch zwischen Kontrabass und ursprünglichen Bluesrock-Gitarren eine gute Figur.Mit SPKE`S ROCKIN 4 war Lutz schon Ende der 80er in einer Rockabilly Band unterwegs. Und jetzt juckts einfach wieder in den Finger: Gemeinsam mit Gitarrist Sudi (Sixes And Sevens), Kontrabasser Marco (Rampires) und Drummer Rockin`Reject (Frantic Flintstones) ruft Lutz im SDommer 2011WYLDFYRE wieder ins Leben. 1987 bis ’89 sang Lutz Vegas, auch bekannt als Frontmann der V8 WANKERS, in einer jungen Frankfurter Neo Rockabilly Formation namens SPKE`S ROCKIN 4. 1991, zwei Jahre nach ihrer Auflösung, fand sich die Band noch einmal im Studio zusammen um sieben ihrer eigenen Kompositionen aufzunehmen. Vier dieser sieben Stücke wurden noch im selben Jahr auf Crawfishin Records als „Finally EP“ veröffentlicht und gingen europaweit 1000 mal über die Ladentische der Vinylspezialisten und Rockabilly Mailorder.Nun, 20 Jahre später, werden erstmals alle sieben Songs in remastertem Sound veröffentlicht und treffen dabei auf Lutz Vegas’ aktuelles Rockabilly Projekt WYLDFYRE, das er 2006 ins Leben rief.“7 brand new hits with grit plus 7 blasts from the past” sind 14 gute Gründe um mit Lutz Vegas 20 Jahre Rock n Roll Studio Recording und 5 Jahre WYLDFYRE zu feiern.

7”IHP 020-7 (in store)
The 4 members come from the bad ska band Edge Up, but also for two of them, from Salvation City Rockers.STREET POISON, it's the energy of californian punk rock, the power of New York hardcore, all this mixed up with the rawness of the Paris ghetto.
In september 2010, their first 13 titles album comes out, recorded at Nuoc Mam studios and signed on the label CARNAGE PUNK ROCK, whom the guitarist is part of.
Not to miss on the album, a featuring with BORN TO LOSE from Texas, recorded in Paris.
But STREET POISON is before all a live band, an uncomparable intensity and a real mastery of the stage, leading them to earn a solid fan base and a very faithful audience. They already shared the stage with big names such as Agnostic Front, Devil's Brigade, Civet, Born To Lose, Pipes and Pints, H2O, Star Fucking Hipsters, Youth Brigade and many more.
Armed with its success and experience, STREET POISON will be on the road in 2011, in France and throughout Europe.TRACKLIST:SIDE A :
