Clockcleaner – Nevermind LP (FDR-095)
Fan Death Records is proud to bring you Clockcleaner’s legendary first LP, Nevermind, receiving its first vinyl release. Allegedly written while singer/guitarist John Sharkey was suffering from a weeks-long case of bilateral amnesia, Nevermind shocked those listeners lucky enough to hear it with its acidic, misanthropic noise-rock spew. Live, Clockcleaner took an uncompromising approach towards alienating audiences, bands, and venues, leading a local alt-weekly to crown them “the most hated band in Philadelphia” in a cover story. While more sensitive types bristled at tracks called “Interview w/ a Black Man” and “Gentle Swastika” (among others), those who were able to stand through their seizure-inducing live shows and vulgar display of reverb found that this band actually wrote songs. Darkly humorous songs with an attitude corrosive enough to melt the mustache off a Northern Liberties Man Man fan. After you’ve come to know and love Babylon Rules and Auf Wiedersehen, you’d be doing yourself a favor by coming back to where it all began.
It’s finally in our hands and available via our online store.
