FREE TICKETS ALERT!

If you buy our Digital Discography from our shop (21 releases for £23.50!), we are giving you TWO tickets to our gig with Slime City on Friday 19th May at Saint Lukes in Glasgow. Limited offer so get in there quick :)

  • We have 2 exclusive songs to play for you - a cover version you may know, and a cartoon theme tune that we’ve not damaged the ears of Scotland with before.
  • It’s Bandcamp Friday, so bands pay less commission when you buy from our shop

Get shopping and planning your trip to Glasgow as this is going to be a memorable one!

If you came to see us last weekend, you’ll remember the outstanding support bands V.C.O. and SLIME CITY. The latter are very good friends of ours with John Disco sporting their tee in Glasgow, and they also have an album out in May. They’re playing...

If you came to see us last weekend, you’ll remember the outstanding support bands V.C.O. and SLIME CITY. The latter are very good friends of ours with John Disco sporting their tee in Glasgow, and they also have an album out in May. They’re playing the gorgeous St. Lukes in Glasgow 19th May for the launch of this, a venue that Sci-fi Steven has longed to play. So… would it be nice for bis to offer to support THEM when they play?? We thought so too. Maybe we can play the songs we couldn’t fit into our mammoth sets last week, or maybe you couldn’t get a ticket for being a slacker before they sold out? Tickets are available here so please join us in supporting 3 of the best/nicest musicians in Glasgow for the party of a fantastic album release. You don’t want to miss this :)

A big thank you to everyone who came to see us on our mini tour this week! We did a large variety of songs from different albums (we have so many!) but were particularly proud of managing three off our new album Systems Music For Home Defence. If you wonder why people have heard the album already and are posting pics of it online, our record label LNFG has a members subscription package where members get sent the item before the release date.  This also happens to those who pre-ordered the album from the label (no subscription necessary). The official release date is now 18th November, and that’s the date the digital version is available too. If you can’t wait that long then LNFG are still taking orders here for CD and the LP that will ship immediately.

We will also add it to our own shop ASAP alongside the new tees and remaining totes from the tour (no pink left sorry!) but give us a little time to unpack from our tour, so you may be quicker via LNFG if you’re gagging to hear it :)

We are delighted to be contributing one of our new songs to this fantastic Loud Women compilation of talented artists while donating to Ukraine at the same time, win-win 🤗https://loudwomen.bandcamp.com/album/loud-women-volume-5?from=fanpub_fnb
