Wild Billy Childish And The KLF


An recent email from Damaged Goods reveals another new Billy Childish band (The Chatham Forts) and a limited edition 7" single in April. The new band sees Billy return to vocals and a 'sound that is more akin to The Mighty Caesers / Headcoats with even a little of The Pop Rivets in there as well, a slightly angular, new wave approach'. 

So far, so good- nothing too unexpected though. The excitement and mind-boggling bit comes with the final line of the message- 'We will have the album to follow in the summer......oh yeah, it also has Jimmy Cauty and Bill Drummond on it as well…that’s the KLF to you'.


Billy Childish and The KLF?! I know! And yet... what will it sound like? Garage rock crossed with stadium house? Or what? 


This song is from Bill Drummond's solo lp The Man- a song named after Dumfries' football team.


Queen Of The South

There must be something in the interweb "air" at the moment, I have read 3 different Bill Drummond related postings in one day! I think I will go to bed listening to 3AM Eternal tonight and chase it up with Lori and the Chameleons Touch...
