Loving this track from the upcoming album Warheads by Adam Stone & Dead Sea Apes
The record is a full-length collaboration between the writer/artist and the Manchester instrumentalists. It takes classic British pessimism and speculative dystopian fiction and entwines it with morbid social commentary and a long piss-streak of bleak humour. They go on to describe the record as “Standing their ground in a dirty jumbled junkyard between Robert Calvert’s schizoid Hawkwind monologues, Dead Kennedys’ stinging cranked-up racket, Gil Scott-Heron’s rhythmic social polemic, Butthole Surfers’ deep-brain-fried psychpunk and John Cooper Clarke’s wry wit, Adam Stone leads Dead Sea Apes through a whistle-stop tour of planet Earth’s inevitable descent into political confusion and bureaucratic misery.”
Right up Mad Mackerel’s proverbial alley and (You Are) Doing What You Want (All Of The Time) is a pulverising slab of pulsating psych rock that comes from the record which is out in October (order here) and which we’ve got on repeat.
