New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Manchester thrash-punks Revenge of the Psychotronic Man (RPM) are pleased to reveal the latest track to be taken from their critically acclaimed third full-length album, Colossal Velocity, out now on TNSrecords.
The new video is a bizarre and surrealist homage to Irish former professional footballer, businessman, and ex-chairman of Sunderland, Niall Quinn's, autobiography, which the band assure us is a surprisingly good read, but is unfortunately not called 'Quinn-tessential' - a fact that they are still lamenting.
Made by Dan Meadows, RPM explain the story behind the left-field song and video as follows; "The story starts at 0161 Festival, which is held at Moston Miners Club. There are a huge array of books at the club, many of which are football autobiographies. In some down time between the bands, our good friend Colin Armstrong decided to read aloud from said books. It's a running joke which snowballed from there!"
RPM have been winning more and more fans right across the underground UK punk scene with their latest album, a 17 track monster crammed full of the kind of socially aware, witty and intelligent punk rock that's been hailed as their finest release to date by the likes of Kerrang! Magazine, Louder Than War, Vive Le Rock and many more blogs and zines.
The band appear at Pie Race Festival 2016 - Leeds' greatest Punk and Pie Marathon - this weekend. Tickets available now from www.pierace.co.uk
