Sally Timms & Jon Langford - Songs of False Hope and High Values

You may know Sally and Jon from their decades-long stint in the ongoing punk/art experiment The Mekons, Jon's leadership role in the country mayhemists the Waco Brothers, or Sally's country chanteuse alter-ego Cowboy Sally. I suppose there's a chance you may not know them at all.

Here's your chance to hear them together. This was originally released as a numbered Limited Edition (2000 copies!) eight-song EP in a special paperboard sleeve with cover art by Jon Langford himself. Once these sold out (in a matter of seconds a few years ago), people started pestering us for more.

Then, our friends in Australia did the work for us and re-released the CD with four newly recorded songs, put it in a jewel case, added some more artwork, and slathered it with vegemite. Then that one sold out, too.

Songs of False Hope & High Values has a stripped-down, but not sparse, campfire feel full of jaunty and crushing songs of hope, desperation and heartbreak. It's a couple of wide-eyed Brits wandering through the vast expanses of America soaking in all the grand myths, disappointments and shattered plans that have become part of the roadside scenery.
