The Termites

Square Go

(13 Deluxe)

A live-gig portrait that fucking roars. It's as if these Scotland skull-grinders have spent years since their 1985 genesis in cryogenic suspension, with additional aggro piped intravenously. Droogs include Kenny "The Duke" Mitchell, Scott "Bally" Ballantine, Ewin, Johnny, and Dougie. The five loose upon cheering rabble razored ricochets of ear-melting astoundment. Somebody stole the tires off an ambulance parked out front.
