Vinyl LP pressing. If you had an uneasy feeling that 2025 would somehow be the year of Thee Headcoatees, then give yourself a hearty handshake - for surprisingly, 'tis true! We can indirectly blame the passing of our dear departed friend, Mr Don Craine, for instigating a regurgitation of Thee Headcoats back in 2022. Ostensibly booked to record a tribute EP as Thee Headcoats Sect - featuring Don's fellow Downliner-in-Chief Keith Grant Evans - the chaps found they had a few extra hours to fill in the studio, so they figured they may as well record a new Headcoats album, too. And why not? This materialised, with minimum fuss, as Irregularis (The Great Hiatus) on Damaged Goods in 2023. Come late 2024 and before you could unravel a deerstalker ribbon the chaps were at it again, and another new Headcoats LP was "in the can", originally scheduled for release earlier this year. HOWEVER, somewhere along the line, some bright spark pointed out, "Why should the boys get all the fun? How about giving those Sisters of Suave, Thee Headcoatees a look in, too?" So, in early 2025 recording time was booked at Rochester's Ranscombe Studios, gin and snacks were prepared, and in the twinkling of an eye the backing tracks were down - Thee Headcoats back in their best rhythm section mode and Thee Headcoatees back singing. Billy Childish took the reins as producer. Undaunted by some geographical hiccups along the way, by late May the result was a new Headcoatees album!
