Sally & Prinss Revisited by Politburo

“Sally & Prinss Revisited”

On December 22nd 2012, the Manchester band, Politburo, released their first album…a piece that they entitled ‘Sally & Prinss Revisited’. This album had been in production for an undisclosed period of time, during which the members had released a variety of other works in different projects. Many of these musical fancies remain in the vaults, unheard bar for a select few whom band individuals have deemed trustworthy. I cannot comment on Politburo’s secretive practices. My job in this missive is to tell you that ‘Sally & Prinss Revisited’ is a beautiful thing that I feel honoured to promote. It recalls the simplicity of a children’s nursery rhyme, cut with a kind of psych-flavour which defies the norms of the genre. It is a genuine attempt to explore the kind of territory which has previously been the preserve of the night-time fair ground, the folk tale and the childhood dream.

Enjoy,

“We get psychedelic cut ups as interludes, we get long, drawn out guitar slug-it-outs like Hung from a Tree and we get a whole heap of sounds and attitudes on tracks like New School Shoes that have you thumbing through your Rubble compilations with a wondering frown.” (Incendiary Magazine)
