The Bible Bashers are back – badder, broker and more belligerent than ever – to share their evangelical fervour for the righteous sounds of rock n’ fuckin’ roll, dick pills, bad cars, bad girls and bad assdom.

Recently reformed after splitting in 2012, their magnetic live presence and no-shits-given punk attitude translates brilliantly to wax on this 8-track in-yer-face middle- finger-raised record.

Laith Tyranny sermonises like a fire and brimstone preacher for the dark side, venomously singing about a recently converted girl in She’s A Mormon Now, Dick Pills, Do The Whippy and The Way I Drive, before a bewildering cover of the classic Stop, In The Name Of Love that has you wondering what the hell they were on that day.
