Crocodile God - Clown



  So, Crocodile God, the highly rated and much loved Liverpool band that started putting out quality releases (often about girls) in the mid 90's and who you could easily mention in the same breath as other UK melodic punkers such as Chopper, Annalise and Skimmer are back with a new album. It's their first since 2012's Once Upon A Time In The North and sees guitarist/vocalist Mark Murphy ably supported by Ravo Stanley (bass) and Liam W. Ashcroft (drums). You'd have thought that 7 years between albums would give them ample time to write a classic and although it doesn't always work like that, on this occasion they've given it a damn good shot. Titled Thirteen, it's also the first new release by Crackle Records for 14 years. It's available on ltd edition (300 copies) orange vinyl and digitally :   https://crocodilegod1.bandcamp.com/album/thirteen

  Given the album's title it's probably no surprise that it boasts 13 tracks, all with one word titles (Around, Drunk, Idiots, Twat....). They're all easy to listen to catchy ear worms from a band at the top of their game. The band are currently touring over in Japan and you can get more info here :   https://www.facebook.com/Crocodile-God-37383253901/

  The song I'm highlighting today is called Clown...
