Does anybody still do stuff here?
The band played Psychobilly Freakout festival and had a great weekend. Never intended to be a Psychobilly band but the scene has adopted us and made us feel welcome, so what the hell! We’re the Spike Direction Effect: Psychobilly Adjacent Garage Blues!

I firmly believe in letting people live their lives and do their thing, but I can’t cope with #glowup on BBC3. Every year there’s at least one MUA on there that looks like SGT. Kabukiman NYPD. And none of them pronounce ‘prosthetics’ correctly.

Please take a moment to enjoy the cover art for the new Spike Direction Effect album, Reclaimer, art by Luke Anderson.
Reclaimer will be coming out at some point this year, preceded by the double-a-side, ‘Waterworks/Chatham Pocket’, which is already on rotation at XRP Radio.

I haven’t seen the film yet, but the design of Count Orlok from the new Nosferatu is excellent. Because it’s like they just dug up the corpse of Vlad Tepes. #moviesky #ismovieskyathing #horror

My boy with his guitar, which he insisted on stickering just like mine. When his attention span had improved a bit maybe he’ll learn to play it. I’d like that, but softly softly, you know how kids are 😂

For my part, they’re cheap. And the aesthetic is fun. In this era the majority of reasons to have music on a physical format are emotional. A lot of people will buy these items just have a *thing*, the fidelity doesn’t really matter to the average listener, s as much as the style.
