Planet Strange are thrilled to release the new EP from the mighty Future Glue. We've been following the Glue closely over the last few years, so when the opportunity came for us to release their new EP it was an absolute no brainer.

The boys are a staple in Glasgow's DIY Punk / Rock and Roll scene - most recently playing at the excellent and renowned Freakender. Here's what the guys at Freakender had to say ahead of their performance last month:

"Future Glue have been destroying stages in Glasgow for a few years now and have released a number of singles and EP's to coincide with their destruction. The band have released on local labels such as Fuzzkill Records, Electric Company and Dead Beet and are known around town for their visceral live shows and unashamedly punk attitude.

Luckily Future Glue walk the rock n roll walk and talk it too - better than all that, they play it! Razor sharp guitars with screeching feedback, deftly drumming, pummelling bass lines, vocals slurred and sneering with pure nonchalance. There’s a whiff of The Fall, The Gun Club, Billy Childish and BRMC in Future Glue’s garage and punk rock and roll assaults".

Welcome to a brand new mix series hosted by us at Planet Strange. In this series, we'll be asking some of our favourite artists from in and around Glasgow to pick one tune from each of their ten to fifteen favourite records and record a short mix for us. The mixes will feature some of their all time most important or influential tracks, records they keep coming back to or just what they’re listening to at the moment. Our aim is to give listeners a bit of an insight into what has shaped these artist's own sounds, while also putting together some cracking compilations. 

First up we have tunes from @future_glue frontman - Craig Kenny. The Glue have been going strong now for a number of years and have a cult following here in Glasgow, with releases on @fuzzkillrecords, @electric-company and most recently on our very own label - Planet Strange. Devil's Pulpit was released on Planet Strange a few months ago and is being recognised as the most complete Future Glue EP to date. If you’ve still not copped a record yet - they’re available via www.planetstrangerecords.com. The launch for the EP was held in a warehouse in Tradeston and featured a stellar line-up of @rottenrows, The Leather Corridor, @sweaty-palms-2 and of course - @future_glue.  

Craig's mix is, as expected,  an eclectic mix of artists such as The Fall, Link Ray, Nick Cave, Eddy Current Suppression Ring, The Velvet Underground, Melvins and plenty more. We’ve got stuff from the 60’s all the way through to the current decade and its definitely one to get the blood pumping. Thanks to Craig for being our first guest and for sharing his records with us - you can tell from the surface noise, some of these have endured many a sesh. 

We hope you enjoy it.
