Show 27: Contraband Christian Plum

show 27: contraband christian plum

Fucking hell - after 18 hours of planes, trains and tit-ripping airport boredom, The Awkward Sons are right back on it, primed and ready to romance your incredible stones.

An extended blast of white light, white heat, Moroccan mountain hash and skull-shaving Sufi trance music definitely takes something out of you, though. Or that might have been the feverish, arse-emptying cramps. Who knows.

So, in honour of the oldest - and wildest - rock and roll band on the planet (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYr3AwdcWyo&feature=share), tonight's show is all about the hidden amp-wrecking gems you never got around to rinsing.

Expect mind-blowing off the radar psych, stupidly rare garage 45s, fuzz-scorched one hit blunders, power trio dancefloor rippers and the odd reverb-heavy wounded teenage weep-out.

If the acid underbelly of late 60s/70s counterculture gets your gape on, you've got to know by now that The Awkward Sons have it all sewn up for you.

Lights down and light up - this one's going to be fucking feral.
