Pre-Order Item. Release Date Subject to Change.Label: DominoRelease Date: 30th October I dunno what kind of winds blow on to Merseyside's coastal towns but they've always made the best madcapped, freakbeat, garage art-rock and kosmiche sounds and Clinic remain the kings of that court. The tenth album of Clinic’s career, Wild In The Streets takes the current temperature of the nation in their own inimitable style. These dozen songs are marked by urgency, surreal wordplay and trademark wit. For a band determined to chart their own course, Clinic continue to push forward in new and unexpected ways. Nearly 30 years since they first founded Clinic as a quartet, Blackburn and Hartley’s chemistry remains as potent as it ever was, perhaps even more so. “We’ve known each other since school,” says Blackburn. “Hartley was always interested in electronics and drum machines, even as a teenager. He’s into rhythms, whether it’s reggae and funk or more conventional guitar music, whereas I was always into songs and melodies. I think that's why Clinic works so well.” Wild In The Streets is now set to take its place beside past triumphs like 2000’s Internal Wrangler, 2006’s Visitations and 2012’s Free Reign. “We’ve always had this absolute faith in what we do,” Blackburn adds. “It’s relatively outsider-ish music, but that’s something that’s motivated us to keep going, because it’s good to have things that are a little out on the fringes. There’s just not enough of that kind of music these days.”
