The Leif Ericsson - S/T

 


Before they were in Stay Clean Jolene, Will and Neil were in a band called The Leif Ericsson, who released a few splits and then this, their sole full-length. And they were brilliant. 

I saw 'em live whenever I could, and although they wouldn't know me from Adam, Will was the one who told me about the existence of beer-flavoured alcopops in Japan not long before I went there. 

Anyway, the band played fantastic anthemic melodic hardcore, garnered justified comparisons with Leatherface  and Snuff, were ridiculously good live, and left us with this UK punk classic. It's hard to convey just how much I loved "Gรถttingen" back then, but the whole record is sublime, and if you didn't catch it at the time, you're seriously in for a treat now.
