MEKONS 77

Hear IT IS TWICE BLESSED on Spotify - open.spotify.com/album/1j6HmQCQ…

@ChrisGPackham Great choice 😎 Thanks, Chris! ⚡️🎶

For #punkrockmidnight tonights great covers/great songs . . . sooo difficult to choose but I went for the original @themekons1977 (you can find the here current m.facebook.com/mekons/) a transformative track for me ‘You had yellow hair Do you see me?’

Czechoslovakia bans gatherings of more than 100, and other countries are following suit. Mekons77 gigs are unaffected.

Heartbroken @gangof4official

According to the papers, cassette tapes are making a comeback. Sales rocketed to 125% last year compared to previous years! Whilst everyone else is only just jumping on the bandwagon, our album 'It Is Twice Blessed' is already available on cassette! themekons.co.uk/shop/cassette-…

Ye current and ongoing mekons have a new album a some dates in April

We were very saddened to hear of the passing of Pete Shelley. He was one of the best songwriters, and in one of our favourite bands. RIP.

We've added a brand new Mekons 77 T-shirt to our already exceptionally deluxe fashion line. Scotland, you were amazing. Thank you to every one of you who came out to see us at our recent shows! themekons.co.uk/shop/

@_pasttense_ @country_mile @joydivisionBook @caroline_binnie @ScotsPostPunk @voodoorooms @GCPunkNewWave That's amazing to hear - we remember your daughter and her friends' Donald Trump rap fondly! We're glad that we could bring you happiness.

@country_mile @joydivisionBook @caroline_binnie @ScotsPostPunk @themekons1977 @voodoorooms @GCPunkNewWave Had a lot of depression, not been v happy last year or so, and am sitting in an underground car park literally covered in shit (drain rodding mishap) / but memory of Mekonville has got me smiling & singing! #Mekons always help me through the shite!

Here’s @themekons1977 rattling through a tremendous set @voodoorooms last night, forty years after Never Been In A Riot launched the Fast Product label.

We've been sent this photo by an eagle-eyed Mekons informant in Scotland. Anybody familiar with Mekons of past and present will know, the photo used on this poster is not the right line up for The Mekons 77! We did not make this poster, and apologise for any confusion caused.
