"A debut masterpiece... These guys are amazing.” Subba-Cultcha - The Black Lamps

joe933 [Edit] [Delete] 19:50, 13 January '15

The Black Lamps have released their debut album today through our little label Of National Importance Records. The band is made up of some very cool musicians that have all been heavily involved in alternative music over the last 3 decades or so including being a part of bands including Creatures of Habit, The Danse Society, Party Day, The Second Coming, Silent Scream and This Colossal Youth. The album is called 'The Black Lamps' and is available on a lovely red vinyl with an art print and a CD for £12 plus postage. It's made the front page of Bandcamp today as a "notable record" alongside Ty Segall no less - all of which we're dead chuffed about. Anyway, you may listen below if your interest is properly gotten:
