Today I want to introduce you to Glasgow band The Plimptons. Their latest album "The Plimptons are Cynical and Bloated" came out on 2nd April. It's their third album in total and they're brilliant.
If you want subtle, nuanced, delicately ambient music then this is not what you should buy. If however, you want fucking noisy, thrashy, brilliantly funny pop with comic dexterity and a feel good factor, then you'll find it here. There are some outstanding tracks on this album "Pride Comes Before A Fall" and "Never Going Back To Work" are good examples. There are moments on here that almost feel like punk never happened. In a way they're sort of like a melding of Half Man, Half Biscuit, Arab Strap and The Buzzcocks - which is a pretty nice combo.
If you buy from bandcamp it'll cost you £3. That's £3 well spent if you ask me. You can preview the record afore ye commit though. Check the link below.
