Today is the 29th anniversary of us releasing the 538 EP by Cha Cha Cohen. We signed them to Chemikal so early on, that this EP bagged the catalogue number CHEM005, meaning they were the third band after @the-delgados.bsky.social and @bistheband.bsky.social to release on the label. #Chemikal30

Broken Chanter are heading out to do three rescheduled shows this week in ABERDEEN, IRVINE, and STIRLING. This’ll be the last time to catch David and band for a while and, having seen them at Cottiers for Celtic Connections with this line-up at the end of January, it’s not something you want to miss

It is #bandcampfriday once again. Today, we’ve delved into ✨The Chemikal Vault✨ and selected the last remaining copies on vinyl of our very own Alun’s solo work. Treat yourself to a copy of his excellent eponymous outing as Lord Cut-Glass, and/or his spectral and emotive score for Battle Mountain.

Thirty years ago today copies of ‘Monica Webster’ started to fly out of a small kitchen on Cartside Street in Glasgow, Scotland. This was the debut single of The Delgados, and the maiden release of Chemikal Underground, a brand new independent record label.
