  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Last remaining copies. Black vinyl. Includes lyric insert.

    This 7" only features tracks 1-7, tracks 8-12 are digital only.

    Note: This is old stock recently recovered from the depths of time. While the records are in excellent, unplayed condition, they have sat in boxes for years and I would not consider them mint.

    International orders under 4lbs will be sent using PirateShip's Simple Export Rate to make fees a little more reasonable. See councilrecords.com/policies for more info.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Cancer Boy b/w Ambulance Catcher + Unreleased via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
    ships out within 7 days
    Purchasable with gift card

lyrics

We'll take it to the stage, sister
Take it to the stage
(with) Credentials accepted
With eyes and not seeing
(Turn it on)

We'll take it to the streets, sister
Take it to the streets
(with) Ashes of tinder
The way of the beaten
The magnet attracting
a witless Aladdin
(Turn it off)

I wish I could stop the shaking
I wish I could stop your shaking
Gas lights don't prove we're right
(we're so fucking wrong)

We'll take this town by rail, sister
Take this town by rail
We'll take this town by rail, sister
Carry this town on our backs (x2)
