Brighton, UK's The Dodgems (more HERE) 2nd Atrix Records single from 1980 is another cool splicing of futurism and retroism. "Lord Lucan Is Missing" features a churchy organ sound, a quick tempo and tremendously hooky use of repetition, while "Got To Give It Up" examines nicotine compulsion in an arty, yet witty and catchy, way.
(This is an alternate take of the LLiM, I believe.)
A Lord Lucan Is Missing
B Gotta Give It Up
Let
myself and Roberto know what you think of the The Dodgems in the

Hey some COMMENTS would be appreciated for these two little treasures!
As a Brightonian who was sadly too young to be part of the vibrant punk scene, I just wanted to say thank you for these.
ReplyDeleteGlad to be of help - hope you're still finding new Brighton band to support!
