So we met behind the bar of a seedy nightclub, serving endless drinks as Motown hits and disco classics stopped our hearts from giving in. That much is true.
Our new single, Angel of Death/Tricks is a see-through slab of purple K.O.O.L., containing a distorted love song for the disillusioned cheerleader, and a whirlwind fuck-u valediction (although we're not going anywhere). It's a split release with our ace Thee SPC companions STANDARD FARE on the flipside. Listen loudly, and your ears will love you.

"Slow Down Tallahassee's LP - ‘The Beautiful Light’ showcased a band that knew how to nail a top pop song with some wonderful fuzzy guitar hooks. These two new songs are still some of the most catchy pop music you are likely to hear.Indie MP3
"Angel of Death and Tricks are a wonderful tumble of swirly synths, buzz-saw guitar, helium vocals and misanthropic filth. Which is about as good as it gets." Sounds XP
"On the pure twist and shout pop of ‘Angel of death’ and the punk pop work out of ‘Trick’ I’m subjected to spite filled lyrical venom in it’s purest form ……Ace!" Norman Records
‘Angel of Death’ and ‘Tricks’ fizz along merrily enough and it’s only afterwards you realise you’ve been knocked sideways with a healthy dose of angel-faced vitriol."Sandman Magazine
‘Taking inspiration from 60’s girlbands, ‘Angel of Death’ has a retro vibe running throughout. " Forge Today
‘Angel of Death’ is not as grim or doomed as the title might first suggest, in fact if truth be known its quite a distractive cutie, light headed and fluffy, summery and floral in a way that only Strawberry Switchblade records ever seemed to appeal."Losing Today

Its been selling faster than we expected, and we currently only have around a quarter of our stock left - so we thought we'd better you all know that if you want a copy then now would be a good time to pick one up! If you buy it from the link above then you're buying it direct from us, the label aren't taking a cut - so its a bit like Fair Trade for struggling musicians.
International mail-order is available, just follow the instructions.
