Sheep on Drugs + Lizzie and the Banshees

Leave a Comment /

SHEEP ON DRUGS BIOGRAPHY: Mocking pop culture and sneering at authority, the U.K. duo Sheep on Drugs began with the credo “sex is death, drugs are for sheep, buy the product.” Formed in 1990 by vocalist Duncan X (aka King Duncan) and multi-instrumentalist Dead Lee (aka Lee 303), Sheep on Drugs combined sleazy rock and trashy techno and released their first single, “Catch 22,” a year later.

EDINBURGH: The Chameleons ‘Script of the Bridge’

Leave a Comment /

Original members Mark Burgess and Reg Smithies have reformed the Chameleons and will be celebrating the 40th anniversary of the classic 1983 ‘Script of the Bridge’ LP. ‘Script of the Bridge’ featured the singles ‘Up The Down Escalator, ‘Don’t Fall’, and ‘A Person Isn’t Safe Anywhere These Days’ and is quite rightly regarded as a Post-Punk masterpiece. Known for their atmospheric, guitar-based sound and passionate lyrics, the Chameleons are regarded as one of the most underrated Manchester bands of the 1980s.

In 2021 Vision Video released their debut LP, Inked in Red, which told the story of lead singer Dusty Gannon (aka TikTok’s “Goth Dad”) and the darkness he saw as a soldier in Afghanistan. This story continues with 2022’s Haunted Hours, which explores Dusty’s experience as a firefighter and paramedic during one of the darkest times in recent history. Working on the frontlines of a deadly pandemic immediately after leaving the horrors of war transformed Dusty’s songwriting resulting in a more accessible album as the subject matter has touched us all.The theme of Haunted Hours is most clearly illustrated in
