Oh, this was a good one. Fuzzed up early Mary Chain pounding A side, New Wave-y B side (before new wave came back in vogue ...disgruntled music fad ed) and a third track that had a Lou Reed feel about it. Y'what ? Tell ya more ? Naaah, no point, really. IT'S SOLD OUT !! No sense in moaning about it. If you aint got a copy... TOUGH SHIT ! Try ebay, late comers ! Next ...

Pop Threat split up quite a long time ago. They barely made it into 2003 before deciding to end the band, following a shambolic gig at The Moles Club in Bath. They left behind a small discography of just four 7" singles, one EP, a couple of compilation appearances, and the full length album, Scum.

Scum was originally released just after the band... [more]

So, this is it, folks... we're getting very near the end. This year, Squirrel Records will close its doors after 45 releases in total. Why 45 ? Well, we like that number, as it's the playing speed of a 7" single. We always said that 33 isn't enough, and 78 is too many. Anyway, Squirrel Records, throughout the years of its existence, has epitomised the true... [more]

Before The Blanche Hudson Weekend, before The Manhattan Love Suicides - there was Pop Threat. Featuring Caroline and Darren from those aforementioned bands on vocals and guitar respectively, along with Juliet (bass) Mick (drums) and, for a brief amount of time in the early days, Rob (guitar). Pop Threat only lasted 4 years, and in that time only recorded a relatively small amount of material (the... [more]

13 releases in and we decided it was time to go down to the Squirrel Records vaults and drag up some classics. So, here we go - 27 tracks of punk pop and generally fuzzy n' scuzzy stuff - some previously released (and now deleted) many SPANKING BRAND NEW!!! We got...

• Exclusive track from The... [more]

Featuring "Crime Time" and "Tell Me Something" by The Real Losers - raw, scuzzy, fuzzy, messy, kick ass garage punk rock n' roll teen fun at maximum volume. OH YEAH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! On the flip side - "No Way Out" and "Cheap and Vulgar" by Pop Threat. One track sounds like a Blondie demo, the other is just NOIZE ! capturing the band in one take, full volume, no frills mode ........ and lots... [more]

Featuring "Dark Black" by Pop Threat - Moody and quite beautiful. Think Chelsea Girl era Nico meets Mazzy Star. On the flip side - "I Fall Down" by The Silver Rockets. Early My Bloody Valentine crossed with Spacemen 3 and featuring guest vocal by Pop Threat singer Caroline. This is The Silver Rockets one and only recording...... so there !

When the great splatter movie director Herschell Gordon Lewis described his debut gore fest, "Blood Feast", he said "It's no good, but it's the first." The same can be applied here, we think. Catchy enough indie pop with a sinister edge and female vocals. VERY limited number remaining. BUY IT .... 'cos it's SUPER RARE and only available from US !
