Artiest: The Flatliners

Album: Division of Spoils

Genre: Punkrock

Label: Fat Wreck Chords

Score: 70/100

The Flatliners brachten in de afgelopen tien jaar vier volledige albums en talloze 7"s uit. Het merendeel van deze platen verscheen via Fat Wreck Chords. Voor wie niet alle 7"s in zijn bezit heeft, heeft de band nu de plaat 'Wynford Bridge' op de markt gebracht. Deze duo cd bevat alle 7"s en vervangt zo de eerder uitgebrachte singles, tevens staan er ook enkele nieuwe nummers op.

Deze cd bevat dus het ouder werk van de liners maar ook de hedendaagse nummers zoals hun Tony Sly cover van Fireball. Met deze cd lanceert het label weer een leuk hebbedingtje voor hun 25ste verjaardag.

Chris Cresswell,

“Every time we get together to write another album, we kind of fly off the handle. For our last 3 we’ve ended up with so many extra songs that we now have another album’s worth. Now some of you might be saying “I have all these songs on several 7”s, on every single colour ever released" and all that. Which rules. And also means you’re a big geek, just like us. Now, it sounds like we may have already fooled you once, but we’re not trying to fool you twice here, folks. As a perk for being our biggest fan with the grandest Flats vinyl collection on earth, we’ve included 3 unreleased tracks from the Dead Language sessions, and a song that was originally demoed for The Great Awake, but was never properly re-recorded. Sweet redemption! Division of Spoils is less a snapshot and more a time-lapse of our “career” to date. And I use that word loosely. Figuring out what songs should make a record and what songs shouldn’t has always been the most difficult part of the process, but to have this collection of songs today is something we’re extremely proud of. We hope you dig the potentially weirder vibes of Division of Spoils”
