The Battery Farm Unleash Debut Album “Flies”

Flies is the debut album from Manchester, UK gutter punk four piece The Battery Farm. It is an album about end times fear and societal breakdown. It is an album that tries to come to terms with the violent world we find ourselves in, and tries to reconcile with an uncertain future in a world that we have decimated. It’s about the endless, screaming noise of 21st Century living and the squalid claustrophobia that entails. The Battery Farm will also be playing a home town sold out album release show tomorrow, the 19th November, at 33 Oldham Street with support from Velma and Bleach Brain.

Driven by fury, black humour, compassion and a desire for hope. The album is out today via Rare Vitamin Records and featuring the singles A Working Class Lad, Wooden Spoon Number and Poet Boy, Flies is by equal measures ferocious, introspective, nihilistic and joyful, with the band taking in elements of punk, hardcore, post punk, krautrock, glam and funk to conjure a wide-ranging piece of work with its own voice and its own world.
