Cute Lepers - Adventure Time

Vinyl LP pressing. 2011 release, the third album from this band featuring former Briefs members Steve E. Nix and Stevie Kicks. On Adventure Time, the band continue to navigate the same territory pioneered by bands like Buzzcocks, the Beat, the Jam, and the Boys. In fact, in a huge nod from that generation, Duncan Reid of the Boys wrote the song "77" and gave it to the Lepers for this album. In addition to the usual Cute Lepers formula, there are also a number of new subtle adjustments including the best saxophone use in a punk song since the Saints' "Know Your Product" on opening track "Tribute to Charlie." the song itself is an ode to UK Subs front man Charlie Harper by name and a number of other die-hards in spirit. Like the last two LP's this record is an undeniable ear worm.
