Formed in Dundee & Edinburgh, Scotland in 1976 by Billy MacKenzie and Alan Rankine, The Associates made some of the most esoteric and lavish ‘pop’ music of their time while gleefully wreaking havoc with industry expectations – refusing to play by any rules.
This new anthology features their biggest hits ‘Party Fears Two’ and ‘Club Country’, three previously unreleased tracks, their cover versions of David Bowie’s ‘Boys Keep Swinging’, ‘Love Hangover’ and the fateful ‘Gloomy Sunday’, plus 21 other songs showcasing their musical inventiveness and MacKenzie’s incredible voice. Includes detailed sleevenotes in an 8-page booklet.

At the moment The Mary Hart Attack busy mixing our full album.
The Mary Hart Attack recorded nine songs. It's going to be a mixture of post-punk, shoegaze and noise. They would like to put it out on vinyl and therefore they are looking for a proper label.
The recordings were a long but productive proces. In some songs they added acoustic guitars, shakers, tambourines and even synths!
It's going to be a bit more calm with the gigs now, but when the record is out they want to go on tour again.
They are going to play at the Kavka, Antwerp at the Dark Demon Nights II on June 18th, so that's going to be cool.
They also will play some more shows this summer, among it at the Gentse Feesten.
Momenteel is The Mary Hart Attack bezig aan de mix van hun full album. Negen nummers hebben ze zelf opgenomen. Het wordt een kruisbestuiving van post-punk, shoegaze en noise. Ze zouden deze op vinyl willen uitbrengen en zijn nog op de uitkijk voor een gepast label.
De opnames waren een langn maar productief proces. ZE hebben er in sommige nummers akoestische gitaren, shakers, tamboerijnen en zelfs synths aan toegevoegd!
Nu wordt het iets rustiger qua shows, wanneer zodra de plaat uit is wil The Mary Hart Attack terug meer gaan spelen.
Binnenkort, op zaterdag 18 Juni, spelen ze wel in de Kavka te Antwerpen op Dark Demon Nights II. Ook zijn er voor deze zomer een aantal shows gepland waarover binnenkort meer nieuws over komt o.a. op de Gentse Feesten.
Koban is a young duo hailing from Vancouver, Canada.
They had their first album out on Broadway To Boundary back in 2013 but it really was their 2014’s EP on Weyrd Son that got our attention. Now their second full‐length is ready and with it Koban achieved to extend and improve the great results of their previous Vide EP.
Cold yet catchy dark post‐punk driven by caustic drum machines, featuring French‐speaking female vocals and English‐speaking male voice, powered by synths and guitars as sharp and dangerous as a rusty blade.
Abject Obsessions features 10 new songs and it’s out April 21 both on LP and CD.
