Prepare for a whole lot of hyperbole. Joanna Gruesome are fucking brilliant. If you don’t believe us why don’t you listen to their caustic, joyously frenetic new single ‘Psykick Espionage’ below. See, we told you.
X-Ray Spex riot girl angst meets Graham Coxon swagger and Sandie Shaw pop in this indiepunk scorcher that hurtles recklessly onto the dancefloor in a whirlwind of drunken nightclub bliss. Stick this on at Club NME and watch the place explode.
