Manchester's Dead Sea Apes reunite with Adam Stone for Warheads



Classic British pessimism and speculative dystopian fiction entwine artfully with morbid social commentary and a long piss-streak of bleak humour.

This is a claustrophobic and self-contained world where paranoid bunker mentality goes for a Pot Noodle with a faded society always teetering on the brink of collapse, ranting street-punk drops bad acid and space station fuses with bus station.

Standing their ground in a dirty jumbled junkyard in-between Robert Calvert’s schizoid Hawkwind monologues, Dead Kennedys stinging cranked-up racket, Gil Scott Heron’s rhythmic social polemic, Butthole Surfers deep-brain-fried psychpunk and John Cooper Clarke’s wry wit, Adam Stone leads Dead Sea Apes through a whistle-stop tour of planet Earth’s inevitable descent into political confusion and bureaucratic misery.

WARHEADS by Adam Stone & Dead Sea Apes is available from Cardinal Fuzz as a limited black and red swirl vinyl and standard black vinyl with insert and download code. Edition of 350. Have a listen to Warheads below followed by a clip of Adam Stone reading "In The Year 2039" with Dead Sea Apes live back in September, 2016.
