Gatefold sleeve, double black vinyl includes DL. Brand new 20 track album from the consistently excellent The Bevis Frond.

A 90 minute blast of grown up angst that engages the best classic rock touchstones from Young and Stills guitar battles to Love's tender melodies, Dinosaur Jr's buzzsaw guitars and Hendrix at his most expressive.

"Harking back to the liberating songcraft of The Beatles but with a jagged edge, intense swathes and swerving changes that give it a transatlantic propulsion, a kinship with the likes of Husker Du." Record Collector.

Featuring a selection of poignant pop songs impregnated with mature riffs and memorable one liners from the pen of the much covered Nick Saloman.

Embracing Saloman's tongue in cheek one liners and clever use of prose, 'We're Your Friends, Man' bristles with incisive wit and poignant observations.

"For the past 30 years, one man has kept the psych freak flag flying." Classic Rock
