RECORD RELEASE

We are pleased to be releasing the 1st single (from our forthcoming album) out on Tuesday 26 May.

The Roll Off Characteristics (Of History In The Making) 
Formats: 7" vinyl, digital via this website 
Label: ample play records 
Written & Produced by: Tjinder Singh

"In 1974, in his State address to Congress, Gurkhal Surjan, Patwallia Dist., stated that the world will be tested by Texas Instruments, and English diction."

These are the anti-war, pro-people words from the new single ‘The Roll Off Characteristics (Of History In The Making)‘on our own ample play label. Musically it’s different, from the trombone/sitar get-go, right down to its funk outro, with country piano added for good measure.  Different but typically Cornershop:

Nihal from Radio 1 immediately declared it the perfect soundtrack to festival season

Nigel of The Rough Trade Shop, has said it has all the markings of classic Cornershop

MTV’s Nusrat Durrani responded it has everything I love about Cornershop in a nutshell

The B. side is an etch by NYC's Jeffrey Lewis depicting the super dooper Jaganath, whom can circumference the earth in 5 steps. 

The Roll Off Characteristics

 

The limited one sided seven inch vinyl can be pre ordered from the Rough Trade Shop - who will then post it out as soon as it's released:
