The Men They Couldn't Hang - Silver Town (MOVLP2701) LP Clear Vinyl Due 14th June

Silver Town is the 1989 studio album by The Men They Couldn’t Hang, a British folk punk group formed in 1984. The band were well known in the UK punk scene, sharing connections with David Bowie, The Pogues and Stiff Little Fingers. Silver Town is their fourth studio album, of which several singles were released, including “A Place in the Sun” and “Rain Steam & Speed”. “Rosettes” was meant to be released as a single as well, but it was cancelled after the Hillsbourough disaster, as the song discusses hooligan culture.

Silver Town is available as a 35th anniversary edition of 500 numbered copies on crystal clear vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve.
