The Surfing Magazines - Badgers of Wymeswold
Released 18th March 2022.
Update from The Surfing Magazines:
“Hello, this is The Surfing Magazines here.
Thank you so much for purchasing a ‘Dinked Edition’ vinyl of our fantastic new album ’Badgers of Wymeswold’. We are really sorry about the horrendous manufacturing delays in getting this product made and delivered to you, so thanks for your patience. Due to international vinyl shortages, the delays were out of our control and there was nothing we could do to get these lps made any earlier, but the good news is that the record is finally ready and due to be delivered to you for 18th March! We hope you like the Vinyl package.
One more piece of news we wanted to make you aware of is that unfortunately the manufacturing plant ran out of specific colour pellets for the marble effect on the last few copies of C/D side of the record. The people at Dinked made an executive decision and decided that rather than delay further, they would send out the LPs as soon as possible, therefore there are a few copies randomly in amongst the 500 pressing that have a marble effect A/B Side and Cream coloured C/D side. In effect these copies are even more limited edition - ’Super Limited'! However, they are getting some additional Marble Effect C/D side vinyl made (due in around 8 weeks) as possible replacements so you can either hold on to your ’Super Limited' pressing, or if you would rather swap the C/D side for a Marble Effect when it is pressed then please contact info@moshimoshimusic.com and they will happily send you a new C/D side in the post to make you happy, once the repress is completed.
Once again sorry it has been such a wait and thanks for all your support, and also supporting Indie retail.
Thanks, and Love from The Surfing Magazines”
Consisting of one half of Slow Club and two thirds of The Wave Pictures, The Surfing Magazines’ primary influences are Bob Dylan, The Velvet Underground and all the great surf guitar music of the 1960s. They burst onto the scene with their eponymous debut album in 2017, a lauded LP described by Record Collector Mag as “a vintage-yet-modern rock’n’roll classic”.
Mixing the noir surf textures of 1960s garage rock along with westcoast sun beaten harmony pop, the 17-track Badgers of Wymeswold follows the acclaimed debut and is to be released July this year. The London based foursome recorded the album at Ranscomb Studio in Rochester in February last year before the start of the first UK lockdown.
Pushing their sound forward, the band utilise their garage rock ethic and have both Drummer Dominic Brider and Rhythm guitar player Charles Watson lead on vocals across multiple tracks. The album sees a return of free form saxophone parts, eerie violins and piano all appear, notably on tracks ‘Nostaw Boogie’ and ‘I’m Going Out Tonight To Play Some Pool’. The title track is drawn from David Tattersall’s nightmare vision about his home town's population of self governing people, the album artwork was also made by Tattersall and depicts a collage of his referenced dreams. The extensive LP showcases their characteristic sound at their brightest, from softer ballads such as ‘Poppies’ and ‘Silver Breasts’, surf guitar rock anthem ‘Locomotive Cheer’, and to the six bar blues ‘Pink Ice Cream’.
