      The Amazing Snakeheads are set to re-release their influential album ‘Amphetamine Ballads.’

      Originating from Glasgow's vibrant DIY scene, the band comprises three musicians who combined classic rock 'n' roll flair with a punk-like energy. They are reminiscent of The Cramps with influences from The Blue Nile, and their remarkable live performances were nearly captured on their only studio album.

      Released in 2014, ‘Amphetamine Ballads’ showcased frontman Dale Barclay's menacing scowl alongside the strong contributions from William Coombe on bass and Jordon Hutchinson on drums, quickly becoming a cult favorite.

      Sadly, Dale Barclay passed away in 2018, and the newly launched Domino Vault archival series is poised to offer ‘Amphetamine Ballads’ a new vinyl pressing.

      This reissue will be released on October 10th as a limited run of 200 hand-numbered copies on 180g heavyweight vinyl, which can now be pre-ordered on Dom Mart.

      Tracklisting: 1. I’m A Vampire 2. Nighttime 3. Swamp Song 4. Here It Comes Again 5. Flatlining 6. Where Is My Knife? 7. Every Guy Wants To Be Her Baby 8. Memories 9. Heading for Heartbreak 10. Tiger By The Tail
