Why is this worthy of my time and money?: I don't think it's a problem that we keep singing the praises of the fellas and fella-esses at All Tomorrow's Parties, so long as they keep providing the goods. For example, last year saw The Lemonheads reform to play their classic 'It's A Shame About Ray' LP as a part of their much celebrated 'Don't Look Back Season'. Now, we're not to say the rapturous reception those shows received was the only reason they reformed for another record of new material, but come on, it must have helped.
And this month's new record, simply called 'The Lemonheads', is something you'll not get to hear live if you're not going to any of these shows , this night in Norwich being the first of a few. And whilst it's title may not be the most imaginative, the record itself certainly isn't the sound of a band running out of ideas, and as a recent rockfeedback live review attests, this night should see them fresh, excited and on form. Come chat to Rockfeedback at it, our own Matt Tomiak will be presenting his thoughts on the night very soon after, as he does.
