BASKETCASE RECORDS ****************** Distr. : UK - Norman Style : CASE 01 DEAD SHEERAN DEAD SHEERAN LP 07.2020 Transparent green vinyl LP on Basketcase Records. Ed. of 300 signed & numbered copies. Adopting an outrage-baiting play on the irritatingly ubiquitous ginger-haired singer -songwriter, Dead Sheeran is a one-man operation whose self-titled debut mini album was completed under coronavirus lockdown following the fantastic single ‘The Fonz’. Very similar to Sleaford Mods in its ‘punk rock but with no guitars’ approach, but with enough savage character of its own to stand apart! https://www.normanrecords.com/press/index.php?item_id=182167 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CASE 02 DEAD SHEERAN A NATIONAL DISGRACE LP 01.2021 Hot on the heels of the wider release of his self-titled mini-album earlier in 2020, Paul Catten takes the temperature of Covid-stricken, Brexit-denying Britain with Dead Sheeran’s first full-length LP. Recorded during the summer as the government laxly lifted the first lockdown, ‘A National Disgrace’ launches cynicism and barbs at all manner of targets, set to concrete-hard beats and chunky, earworm bass riffs. https://www.normanrecords.com/press/index.php?item_id=184908 =======================================================================================
