The Beatpack - All Good Things (Turn To Dust) (2022)

The Beatpack have been around in various shapes and forms for thirty years now, albeit with a two-decade break in the middle. First time around, they recorded a 7" EP in 1989 (produced by Billy Childish), followed by another 7" in 1990, then their debut LP in `91, all on German label Screaming Apple. They toured with Manic Street Preachers, along with The Thanes, The Aardvarks and others, and then vanished in a puff of smoke, only resurfacing in 2012. Since their return, two more 7"s and one 7" EP were released through State Records, followed by a 7" EP with Heavy Soul Records. Now their long-awaited second LP, 'All Good Things (Turn To Dust)' comes through Spinout Nuggets.
