The Bachelor Pad .All Hash & Cock.

“Imagine the Buzzcocks with Syd Barrett as the singer!"

THE BACHELOR PAD : five lysergically-enhanced heads from Strathbungo, Glasgow. Psychedelic punks born into, but delightfully out of step with the C86 fanzine culture of the time.
Flashes of red and purple… Perfect pop buried amidst a nuclear maelstrom of noise and excitement.
During their brief existence they burned bright, squeezing out an album, 5 singles and a flexi-disc, with the cream of the crop being served up on this career spanning compilation.

“…amid the sonic bedlam, they write the sweetest melodies, they’ve got the most agreeable harmonies. It’s all about extremes: “Do It For Fun” is the noise your brain makes when everything you’ve taken comes on top at once; “Tumble And Fall” is as cute as a squirrel’s nut, "The Coroner’s Wife” is…. well, answers on a postcard, please.”
