REVIEW:
The Scratch, as the title of the record suggests, got tired of waiting for the music industry to give them a chance and have decided to make their own way. The fact that they’ve achieved such a diverse yet coherent set of songs is to be applauded.

REVIEW:
‘I Relax To Spiral Scratch’ - a gloriously dumb 3 minute kamikaze dive bomb of a tune. Like the Ramones and the Damned working through the Buzzcocks (well it would be with a title like that) song book on speed complete with outer space sound effects for good measure. It should be all too much but against the odds it works. B side ‘Trigger Finger’ is a spiky, shouty, trashy piece of work with howling guitars and a great spoken run through of some of Londons lowlights.
