One of my favourite UK bands over the last few years have been Bristol collective Silicone Values. They've released a string of extremely catchy singles, a number of which I've featured on here : https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/search?q=silicone+values
I've always thought they didn't get the attention they deserved. Pretty much everyone on the chatroom for the Just Some Punk Songs shows that I've played them on has loved them but in general they've always seemed to go under the radar. Hopefully that's about to change with the release of How to survive when people don't like you and you don't like them.
It's a 15 track album collated by Paris label sdz records which brings together those singles into one very tidy package. It's available on vinyl and digital download and I'm not exaggerating when I say it's essential listening.
I've got to admit that I'm a little confused as by by my reckoning, the 2020 single The Last Work Of Piss Artists b/w Just As Simple as That (https://siliconevalues.bandcamp.com/album/the-last-work-of-piss-artists-b-w-just-as-simple-as-that) is missing but that's made up for with the inclusion of 3 songs I haven't heard before.
It's a truly great "greatest hits" comp so check it out.
This is one of those new tracks and it's as good if not better than anything the band have done thus far. It's called GABBA Receptor...
