That Fucking Tank Ride Again


I'm not sure you can get many of these, if any, any more, but getting anything from Leeds spazz maestros That Fucking Tank is an absolute necessity. Their 7" China tour record features two songs and one remix. It's a little tempered from other frenetic out-there fare, but no less muscular and breathtaking. Glad to see the silly monikers stand in good stead - 'Chumbawumbabanger' is a killer starter, a song that creates its own sonic slipstream to focus on and barely moves away from it - something almost unheard of in previous TFT unhinged and frenetic output. 'Pigeon Club' is a little more broken-down and battered, with some of that finger-tapping madness filtering through, but there is a warmth here that has only flitted at the edges in past recorded releases. The remix is by Game Program (member of Hookworms) and is bloody great, actually - an all-round stellar package. Grab it here.
