Slags - The Umlauts [VINYL]

There are few things in life quite as mesmerising or outrageously euphoric as the nine-strong Umlauts army effervescing in fulsome force. Rebelling against labels, transcending borders of land and time - packed with twin vocalists equally competent in their skewering south-London drawl as they are in German, Italian or French - as in touch with the nostalgias of first-generation post-punk or '80s pop as they are with the techniks of contemporary pop or big beat dance - The Umlauts are paragons of trans-europe excess, dripping with inarguable edge; shambling wildly from chaotic cool to bombastically exquisite order; invested with unhinging, socio-political bite, dancing in a rave of their own. Compiling the best of The Umlauts first two EPs - 'Ü' (2021) and 'Another Fact' (2022) - and appended with a clutch of new material - 'Slags' offers the most comprehensive versioning of this Umlauts experience as yet extant on record; a salacious digest of wild experiments past and present.
