THEE HEADCOATEES	Man-Trap	CD	DAMAGED GOODS	DAMGOOD 635CD
$16.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 11/21/2025 "If you had an uneasy feeling that 2025 would somehow be the year of Thee Headcoatees, then give yourself a hearty handshake -- for surprisingly, 'tis true! Through sheer determination and tenacity, one-by-one, Ludella Black, Kyra LaRubia, Bongo Debbie and Holly Golightly were dragged kicking and screaming (the things they do best) out of the woodwork to lay down the 14 killer-diller cuts found on this, their latest long-playing release, the cunningly titled Man-Trap. That's no mean feat! So, in early 2025 recording time was booked at Rochester's Ranscombe Studios, gin and snacks were prepared, and in the twinkling of an eye the backing tracks were down -- Thee Headcoats back in their best rhythm section mode and Thee Headcoatees back singing. Billy Childish took the reins as producer. Undaunted by some geographical hiccups along the way, by late May the result was a new Headcoatees album!"

THEE HEADCOATEES	Punk Girls	LP	DAMAGED GOODS	DAMGOOD 482LP
$19.00 NOT IN STOCK "Thee Headcoatees Punk Girls reissued after 20 years, it's one of their best and meanest records. The opener, 'Punk Girl', is Kyra at her most defiant. She's had people walk all over her and abuse her and she's not taking shit from anyone anymore. She's out for blood and it shows. Ludella is equally spiteful on 'Don't Wanna Hold Your Hand'. This is really a great angry album. Best version of 'Teenage Kicks' after the original. Screw The Raconteurs. Jack White knows who ripped off who. Of course closer, 'Ca Plane Pour Moi' is the Thee Headcoatees on fire. Not a bad song on here. The Headcoatees were Holly Golightly, Ludella Black, Kyra Rubella & Bongo Debbie, they released seven studio albums, a singles compilation and a split live album with Thee Headcoats. Thee Headcoatees played live along with Thee Headcoats from 1990-1999 when they split followed a year later by Thee Headcoats. Holly Golightly has gone on to release 13 solo albums and too many singles to mention, plus notable guest appearances on records by Rocket From The Crypt, The White Stripes and Mikabomb. Ludella Black was a founder member of legendary Medway band the DelMonas and has also released two solo albums with another planned for 2008 and is currently out on tour with The Masonics. Kyra Rubella released one solo album and singles on quite a few labels in the 1990s, she also did a single with Armitage Shanks in 1996. Kyra is currently in The A-Lines along with Debbie and Julie from The Musicians Of The British Empire. Bongo Debbie is currently in various bands including The Buffets, The A-lines, & Dutronc and before that was also in The Would Be Goods, Honey & The Hucksters, Baby Birkin and probably a lot more besides."
