The Meanies / Shutdown 7" Gold Vinyl

The Meanies / Shutdown 7" Gold Vinyl

Recorded 25 years ago by Shane O’Mara at his studio Yikesville, ’Shutdown' is seeing the light of day for the very first time. It’s not your average bear as far as The Meanies usual sound goes but hey, a change is as good as a holiday and they can’t afford one of those right now. On the b-side of the 7” you’ll find Frenzal Rhomb and Perth punks Leeches! doing renditions of Meanies classics.

Link says “Shutdown is sonically The Meanies at their sexiest. Bono would say " this record has hips" to which I'd reply, "piss off Bono you pretentious twat". You can dance to this one. I can't, I'm a terrible dancer.”

The single will be available on limited edition translucent red 7” vinyl and limited edition gold 7” vinyl (250 of each colour) through a joint venture between Cheersquad Records & Tapes and Fantastic Mess Records.
