Now summer’s here it seems only fitting to unleash this reissue of Scotland’s most infectious power-pop quartet. ‘Deep Fried Fanclub’ is being re-released on the 29th of August as part of the Fire Records Embers reissue series.
This album is an amalgamation of Teenage Fanclub’s currently out of print B-sides, rarities and also includes universally loved “Everything Flows” from their debut album ‘A Catholic Education’. Teenage Fanclub’s sugary indie sound is delivered with a forthright rock approach you’d expect from Big Star or Dinosaur Jr. Celebrating a career spanning two decades this collection highlights lost gems making them available once again in a lovingly packaged CD. Featuring “Speeder” (a B-Side on “Everything Flows” and “Everybody’s Fool”) and none other than Don Fleming at the helm for production duties on “Weedbreak” (B-Side from their very first single “God Know It’s True”). Complete with covers of Neil young and Beat Happening to name a few, this album is perfect for a sunny afternoon with some time to kill.
Reissue design by Alex Hornsby.
