We have processed the opinions of those who have been kind enough to review The Mules’ debut album ‘Save Your Face’ and we can now describe the record (out now by the way) as follows:
Generically speaking it is ‘thrashy punk ska skiffle vaudeville blues lounge country post-punk music-hall hillbilly skronk’.
It is ‘excitably silly on occasions’ and ‘as exhilarating and inexplicably comical as it is bewildering’.
It might ‘make you want to invert your skin, or climb into the stereo’.
It is ‘brilliant’.
So, there you have it. For once we don’t have to blow the trumpets. We should also tell you that a limited, specially packaged version of the album is now available on CD through this website as well as in independent record stores around the U.K. The following shops will be selling copies:
Rough Trade, London
Pure Groove, London
Jumbo Records, Leeds
Norman Records, Leeds
Piccadilly Records, Manchester
Record Collector, Sheffield
Selectadisc, Nottingham
Spillers, Cardiff
Polar Bear, Oxford
Avalanche, Edinburgh
File-Under Records, Japan
The record will be released on a much wider scale in March next year thanks to the help of our new partners Kartel. We will keep you posted with more information on this as the time draws near. |
