The 2nd release on Needlesoup is out now! Kufr EP is by our long-time favourite The Rebel. Masterminded by Ben Wallers of the Country Teasers, it's gem of ingenious, irreverent, song-writing originality, and you can get a taste on our myspace page. In keeping with Needlesoup's ethos of treating every release as a work of art, the sleeves are handprinted on watercolour paper & as special as the music itself.
