Big thanks to the guvnor @gidcoe.bsky.social for the Carpet Squares love on his 6 music show last night ❤️
Our friends at Spymania are doing some t-shirts and hoodies to celebrate 30 years since their first record release everpress.com/spymania-30-... . They were the first people to release anything of ours, and without them we probably would have stopped when we broke our first tape deck
Wevie Stonder returned to Skam with their first album in 16 years, and such an occasion requires further celebration. This mix for Bleep unravels all of the wildly eclectic sounds and styles that have powered over two decades of iconoclasm.

Veteran UK surrealists Wevie Stonder deliver a bizarro rock spectacle for the ages on their first full-length in over a decade. It's our Album of the Day.
“From carpet tiles to call center lines to Bulgarian bean barters—an uncanny symphony of sounds, woven seamlessly into one surreal tapestry”
Another lovely review of our new album - thanks @igloomag.bsky.social
You can stream the album here: tr.ee/QaDkjaFdlM
Or buy a CD/LP in record shops now :)
Really happy with this one - Bandcamp Album of the day for Sure Beats Living!
Big thanks to the legendary @joemuggs.bsky.social for the kind words - go check ‘em out, and then the album ;)

Wevie Stonder – Sure Beats Living - New album
Now available all formats.
Delightful to have them back, enjoy.
#weviestonder #skamrecords
IT'S RELEASE DAY!! - for Sure Beats Living, our long awaited new album 💥
It's out now on LP, CD and streaming - in all the usual and unusual places tr.ee/PI3Ww7ON9b
Written, produced and recorded at Wevie HQ, mastered by @phibarnmastering.bsky.social and released by @skamrecords.bsky.social
'Wevie Stonder's approach is akin to that of Cassette Boy, Mr Scruff, or Matmos at their cheekiest. In an era of disposable music, where the lifespan of a record rarely extends beyond its release week, perhaps the comedy album can shine?'

Well that’s another thoroughly bizarre @weviestonder.bsky.social journey! Genre defying and as usual discussing the topics other bands refuse to acknowledge 😆
I really don’t know where to start so can only suggest that you listen yourself 🔥
Thanks again gents, it was worth the wait 🙏
Ah wow - we often talk about that gig, was absolutely hilarious. One of our faves
Was that in Tottenham??
Aye ! :)
CARPETS CARPETS CARPETS
just discovered the mindbending news via the excellent @thewiremagazine.bsky.social review that wevie stonder are back with a new album after 15 years :)) out 25th july on Skam woot woot!
Our new single ‘Vanja & Slavcho’ is out today on all digital platforms that you can buy / not buy / listen to or not listen to our music on. Why not do all of those things?
It features a tale about some talented twins and my kids are singing on the end of it.
Lovely.

Hey Mike 👋 not for a while… It would make sense to do it now, but we don’t make sense right now
Big thanks to the legend that is Eric James @phibarnmastering.bsky.social for a fantastic job on mastering our album - sorry for almost reducing you to tears Eric, we’ll make it up to you 🥃
We've got a single out and here's a vid about it.
Feel free to message your favourite 6 music / Radio 3 / NTS / Rinse FM / Country FM DJ’s or your local M.P. and request that they play it.

Let’s ask him
Amazing - didn’t think the original could be improved, but how wrong I was
