Snapped Ankles are a London based band who make way out punk music appearing in weird, shamanistic costumes in their incredible live performances. Their music is a collision of art-punk and noise with raw analogue synthesizers and drum machines augmenting the standard guitars and drums setup.
This release on
Ears have Eyes The A side comprises of True Ecology (shit everywhere) which brims with pace and energy right from the outset. Following on from that is Nowhere, which is a cover of the track from the little known, Belgian noise-wave artist Snowy Red. The Ankles have made the track their own with this version infusing it with their trademark rhythm and urgency.
On the B side the EHE label owners Miles and Joe provide their own remix of True Ecology under the production name Fools. Their re-work takes the original in a totally new direction, giving it a deep, dubbed out house/disco sound.
All of this is served up on strictly limited press (300 copies only) hand numbered 10" vinyl with a lovingly designed cover. Each person who buys the vinyl will receive a code to download the digital release for free.
