Dingus Khan offer Bong Hits for £6
Find out why property prices have dropped and there’s a FOR SALE sign next door to Mick Squalor’s house in Manningtree, as we explore the secret psychotropic history of Dingus Khan, with a 15-track compilation of mysterious and terrifying sounds that only his neighbours have heard before.
Yes, we have finally assembled the last remaining copies of Bong Hits, the new Dingus Khan album originally given away to the first 50 people to arrive at the antigen records party at Colchester Arts Centre on 21 February. Bong Hits is a crazed collection of home recordings, abandoned singles, studio outtakes and radio sessions. It charts the growth of Dingus Khan from their very first rehearsal as a two-piece (Mick Squalor and Nick Daldry), to the monstrous eight-body incarnation that shook the stage at Reading Festival… and beyond. It contains the unreleased Adopted single from 2014 (the elusive antigen 113), the mailing list exclusive download Second in the Beauty Pageant and the band’s contribution to BBC Introducing in Suffolk’s 2012 reworking of Please Please Me by the Beatles.
This is a pro-duplicated CD containing 15 bong hits. Plus an 8-page A4, full-colour comic, printed on deluxe heavy stock uncoated paper, illustrating the lyrics to Adopted. Drawn by self-described artist Tom Armstrong. At time of writing, there are about 45 copies remaining. This will not be re-pressed. It’s available from our webstore now.
Try before you buy, by following the Bandcamp link. Note: the physical CD/comic is more expensive on Bandcamp as they take a 15% cut from physical sales (even though they don’t actually stock the record or help distribute it – go figure).
