BANGERS "SMALL PLEASURES" AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER NOW

It is hard to describe how excited we are to be involved with the new full length by Cornwall, England's BANGERS in just a few short weeks. The record will be available on Specialist Subject in the UK/Europe and with KOD in the US.
***AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER NOW!*** NORTH AMERICA/WORLD or UK/EUROPE

This PRE-ORDER will ship on May 9th, 2011 and buying this record will come to a Free Instant Download


Listen to the 1st track,:

The new BANGERS album "Simple Pleasures" packs intelligent lyrics and tight musicianship into a mid-tempo punk rock melee. The record is littered with subtle hooks, head-bobbing breakdowns, and endearingly gruff vocals. Couple those components with an amazingly warm sound it makes this full length incredibly authentic sounding. It's hard to put a finger on what one thing that makes you want to listen to "Small Pleasures" on repeat but I guess that is what makes it so darn perfect. Great music for drinking to, or driving to, just try not to do them both at the same time.
