Preis inkl. MwSt, zzgl. Versand

ONLY A HANDFUL!!! Alternative Tentacles Records and Crispin Glover Records is proud to present Punch, a new split 7-inch from Patrik Fitzgerald and Motorpsycho featuring Jello Biafra, both performing Fitzgeralds classic song, "Punch." Patrik Fitzgerald is an English singer-songwriter, known for being one of the originators of the Folk Punk movement. Ranked as one of the most memorable of the so-called "punk poets" he first debuted in 1977 and has become known for his unique combination of punk outrage with a streak of optimism. Originally writing the song "Punch" in 1980, shortly after Margaret Thatcher had been elected Prime Minister of Great Britain, Fitzgerald had this to say about the song; "At the time that the song was written, it seemed like the worst type of person to be in charge of a country would be a right wing monster like Margaret Thatcher or a dangerous ex-actor / reactionary like Ronald Reagan, a bit of a joke figure, but also a gun-toting and gun promoting right wing monster. Nobody might have expected that, by the early 2020s, the world would end up in the hands of actual clowns like Donald Trump and Boris Johnson, people written off by their own public as comedy buffoons, people to laugh at but not take too seriously." Side A features a new recording of the song from 2021, while on side B the track covered by the Norwegian rock group, Motorpsycho with a bit of help from the legendary Jello Biafra.
