The Mourning After – “Goodnight God Bless” / “Ain’t My Woman” (Chaputa! Records CHR 7029) April 2021
The Mourning After :’Goodnight God Bless’ | are an enduring and much admired garage band from Sheffield. After years of inactivity they’ve recently started gigging and creating music again.
Some of their home-studio recordings from “The Purple Pit” have recently surfaced on limited 45 pressings and this powerful two-sider on Chaputa! Records is one of their best ever.
“Goodnight God Bless” has insidious fuzz and tremolo effects throughout underpinned by the snaking Seeds-like repetitive keyboard riff.
Vocals are crisp and clear, the drummer batters away at his kit effectively and the production is intentionally raw and uncluttered culminating in a garage punk sound that is impossible to ignore.
