A brittle metronome in a delirious tension landscape, Women’s Hour are a Glasgow based experimental post-punk duo featuring Contort Yourself head honcho Murray CY and artist Jenny Wicks. Creating noise, harmony and disquiet washed in synth and repetitive guitar, rough beats and distorted vocals, Women’s Hour are constantly trying to embrace the shouting in their heads. LIES presents their debut release, a 12 track LP, a true to form jagged 80s post-punk affair, the two piece bring to life the day to day in the grim North through their music.

Insane hyper hybrid combo of wave/house/techno by Murray CY of Glasgow. The CY stands for Contort Yourself’ the label he runs which bridges the gaps between lost sounds of the past and contemprary noise makers, this ep displaying the producers take on the sound perfectly. All four tracks move in their own way from mid-tempo heaviness to more peak time fare. This is the rough back alley stuff you’ve been warned about! US pressing, import price.

In a world where everything is relative, this may well be the final nail in the truth’s coffin. From the past to the present and the present to the past, of stories forgotten and to be told. Murray, labelboss from the great Contort Yourself label, created a library full of edited (un)forgotten cassette material from the first part of the 80’s. This compilation features Die Form, Fan Tan, Nocturnal Emissions, AGem, Beats Per Minute and Parazite: tracks to take you back to the future on the modern day dancefloor.
