My friends the music industry is indeed extremely unpredictable and volatile, there are surprises and prizes galore, and just as many disappointments and downturns to balance things out. However here is a return that boasts an eye-watering 28-year gap, probably broken a few records there, so please let us roll out the green, green grass for those Flymo fiends, Lawnmower Deth. They first graced our planet in 1987 with their irreverent and chaotic antics, and now are proud to present a new album which will be upon us on 28th January 2022. Gloriously titled ‘Blunt Cutters’ and featuring lead single ‘Deth! Maim! Kill!’ dust of those blades and get a-cutting because here is a tune just shy of three and a half minutes that will have you tearing up your tulips quick smart! The new album is bedighted with 18 tracks, so we can expect more manic entertainment, and after watching footage of their headline slot at Bloodstock this year, the band are daisy fresh and brimming with excitement.
A spoken introduction paves the way – see what I did there, hahaha – for a running with scissors, full pelt thrasherama, encompassing all the good things we remember about this band. A homecoming that vanquishes all others, reinstating Lawnmower Deth and rejuvenating our continued musical therapy that lockdown has provided.
It’s over the finish line with the blood curdling ‘kill, kill kill’ and it’s time to raise your snails and resurrect the garden fancier within!
