COMMUNITY GAMES
Apart from being one of the best Irish-centric compilation titles I’ve heard in ages, The Community Games is a compilation of 4 EPs from 4 bands associated with the label, Cave Ghosts, Ginnels, Grand Pocket Orchestra and No Monster Club who share members, a rehearsal room and equipment between them.

Each band gets three songs each on a 12″ release that’s out on April 5th. There’ll be 10 collectible covers to get each with a shot of a different member on the front. There’s a launch gig on Saturday April 13th, upstairs in Whelan’s, €5 or €10 with the LP. Bargain.

Have a listen to a track each from the bands and get to know the 10 people involved in a shitty sitcom-style TV intro:
