SINGLE OF THE WEEK

Now here's something to get you up in the mornings. It's a socio-political nursery rhyme but the thing kicks with the velocity of a bazooka rocket and fair burns up the turntable. It's noise, glorious noise; muscular power and a beat hit hard to the pain threshold. Absolutely devastating stuff. Play loud enough and you can see why the walls of Jericho fell.
