UNDERGROUND MEDICINE
Last update 29, June 2009
Several new things including another 3 lps! Two of these lps (Botox Rats and Shanghai Wires) along with the Johnny Throttle 7 are enough to officially qualify as an English Punk Rock Explosion! I know its been a long time since London and punk rock could be used in the same sentence, but these are killers! And yes, finally the DC Snipers are back!
Dont forget to check the bottom of the page for an lps (last copies of Le Face). Remember, new singles are added weekly, as we get them, not in a single update like the old days...
