Sam Forrest (Nine Black Alps) and Danny Trew Barton (White Firs) joined forces with drummer Danny Hirst to form Sewage Farm, a power trio with a penchant for garage rock, psychedelic pop, and grunge. While their favorite bands are all Amercian (Big Star, Teenage Fanclub, Dinosaur Jr, Sonic Youth and Pavement) their sound is quite definitely English, especially the melodies, with plenty of tension and release.
Their debut album Cloudyi a roung-aroudn-the- edges lo-fi affair, knee-deep in smart hooks and riffs. Pop it in the player for a Long Srive, take a swim in the Darkest Ocean and changes are a foil mood will be replaced by a more cheerful outlook on life, a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy that should propel this band to bigger venues that hosts rock shows for a target group that likes to drink beer and play air guitar, while swaying gently to the back beat.

Danny Barton: bass

Cloudy is released thru Desert Mine Music. Release date: November 11.
