Please take a moment to enjoy the cover art for the new Spike Direction Effect album, Reclaimer, art by Luke Anderson. Reclaimer will be coming out at some point this year, preceded by the double-a-side, ‘Waterworks/Chatham Pocket’, which is already on rotation at XRP Radio.

I have several 35mm trailers in a bag from my days as a projectionist. This is Avengers, and Pirates in an adventure with scientists.

I haven’t seen the film yet, but the design of Count Orlok from the new Nosferatu is excellent. Because it’s like they just dug up the corpse of Vlad Tepes. #moviesky #ismovieskyathing #horror

Just set the process in motion to delete our music from streaming services, it’ll be back, but in a new form, reconfigured to focus on newer material. More importantly, everything remains, and shall always remain, on bandcamp. Mostly now pay-what-you-want! spikedirection.bandcamp.com

Self-care weekend in the studio with the boys @stejy.bsky.social and @blakeharmer.bsky.social and a stinking cold improved my vocals if anything!

Me and the boys down in Ramsgate last November. River Rats closed out our last album. It’s the true story of when I went mano a mano with a huge rat in my bathroom. It’s immense fun to play. #punk #blues #garagepunk #garageblues #livemusic #psychobilly #diymusic #originalsong #bandcamp

My boy with his guitar, which he insisted on stickering just like mine. When his attention span had improved a bit maybe he’ll learn to play it. I’d like that, but softly softly, you know how kids are 😂

Woody Guthrie been consistently popping up in my life lately. Like he’s being summoned back to the material plane or something. We could use another one of him I think.

#severance, the best show on TV, is finally back. Here is the fan edit that got me watching, I saw this with no other context and I knew I had to get on board. (it's not Meshuggah that they dance to in the actual show) www.youtube.com/watch?v=eX4G...
