Музыка и песни That Fucking Tank / That Fucking Tank

Released to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Leeds/Bradford-based alternative / noise rock duo That Fucking Tank. The album is a raw account of the live set that TFT have been playing all over the UK and Europe for the last few years, comprising tunes from their back catalogue performed as one unrelenting track. The album was captured by Matthew Johnson (of Suburban Home Studios and the band Hookworms) with the minimum of retakes and postproduction resulting in an authentic document of a band who have upheld a reputation as one of the must-see bands on the UK underground circuit. A Document of The Last Set attempts - in a similar way to the band's 2004 debut e.p - to translate the energy, volume and pace of a TFT live show to record and in so doing acts as a fitting closure to a decade of DIY eardestruction.

The hard rock and classic metal influences raise their head elsewhere in NWONWOBHM and in epic climax-track "threads". Melody plays a prominent role in "wonderful World Of' and "War On Fire' that both push the Tank sound as close as they'll come to sing-along territory. Perhaps most unexpected for ardent fans will be the ambient tracks "lomond' and acoustic closer "End (Of Wonderful World)' whilst those that know the band & their roots will be less surprised to find a cover of early 90's DIY hardcore legends Voorhees, as well as a chancegenerated thrasher "d8' which nods aggressively to UKHC and British grindcore. Another homage is "acid Jam', a track that put CD, Album
