Bad Guys, Hackney’s purveyors of rock that rocks hard, have announced a new album. It’s been given the horrifically ill-advised title Bad Guynaecology and will be out on March 16 via Riot Season. What of its origins? Well, good thing you asked: its highly informative press release, which provides a point-by-point breakdown of the band’s various gigs that have been shut down (numerous ATP festivals, the Trafalagar Square’s fourth plinth to highlight a handful), tells us it was: "Recorded in a snake pit, in a quarry, on top of a mountain, in the desert, at night, during a thunderstorm", and boasts "a twin double-neck baritone/regular six-guitar attack, pounding drums and wild vocals laid down on seven foot wide steel tape, then smelted into WAVs by an irritable dwarf in an ancient forge, in space".
Play the short in-the-studio video at the foot of the piece for a smidgen of what that lot sounds like, and have a look at the gigs the band will be playing around the album’s release below:
