HMHB have a new album out.
He's got nothing you'd want to borrow
a mastiff in the back running loose
he's a man of constant sorrow
with a garage in constant use

But I forgot my headphones yesterday so I haven't listened to it yet.

I almost can't wait for bine conduction implants.

bine conduction sounds painful.
I love that there's a crossword in the album notes.
Also What made Colombia famous... has gone rapidly into my list of favourite HMHB songs.
Edit: So has Swerving the Checkatrade.

The line about giving up football because of 'a shin that looks like Inter's end on derby day' makes me lol out loud every time

More older bands should write about their age instead of pretending to be young - it's much more interesting.
I mean, imagine if the new Madonna album had a song about having bad knees.

Very good it is too - a clicky link for anyone who has Google Play Music:

One of the best rhymes in history...
"To cope with the grief and the hurt and the loss
He exited Crieff, Perth and Kinross."
...one of their best footy references ever...
"Oh let me gaze upon your curves
Instead of Ipswich Town reserves
Swerving the Checkatrade with you"
...and another glorious takedown...
"He got a Boardman bike on the Cycle to Work scheme. Discovered he really enjoyed it. Started watching the Tour de France highlights on ITV4. Worshipped at the altar of Wiggo and Froome-dog. Goes out every Sunday in full Sky replica kit.
Get your hedge cut
Get your fuckin’ hedge cut
Stop analysing Strava
And cut your hedge"
Get this album and ensure the band carry on making music into their old age.
