Goldie Lookin' Chain (do keep up, they're my new favourite band) release the double-safe double-a side "Half Man, Half Machine" / "Self Suicide" on Monday 19th April. "Half Man, Half Machine" is like a riposte to MJ Hibbett's "Hey Hey 16k", but Eggsie doesn't just want to reminisce about old computers and consoles, he wants to do the sex with them. "Self Suicide" is a tasteless tale of improvement through self death. Neither track is at the more subtle end of the GLC spectrum, but they're both funny, and rude, and with not too many Newport references, so they're good choices for an intro.
If you're a proper fan, you'll have the CD's already, but seeing as they've never been available in shops and that, you will have to make do with being the first to buy this single... it's available as a super super limited six track 12'' (2000 copies only) and a CD. Get it now and retire on your Ebay profits in a years time. It's released on www.mustdestroymusic.com, who you'll remember also brought you The Darkness. No, it's not my label, but I wish it was.

Newport hiphop chancers Goldie Lookin’ Chain had to scrap a live TV appearance because of the Madrid terrorist attacks last night.
The Kappa rappers were to have performed the song "Self Suicide" live on S4C, last night...
But producers at the programme, "I Dot", canned the take, deciding that the song's lyrical content might offend viewers in light of the atrocities in Spain.
The song is a satirical take on the theme of suicide, and suggests: "I heard in a song that suicide is painless - and it's 80 per cent sure to make you famous".
Rapper Billy Webb said: "In a way I'm glad, because it's got loads of swear words and I was worried I might have accidentally sung some rude words on live telly during my bit.
"The song's about popping your clogs for the fame - like Elvis or that bloke from INXS - and the TV people thought it might not have gone down too well yesterday, of all days.
"Fair enough. And anyway, we got to do our song about Eggsy turning into a robot instead. [Half Man, Half Machine]So that was safe."
Later the same night, the Chain once again lit up the switchboards at Radio One after a torrent of swear words during a "One World" midnight special...
The Chain are currently preparing for an extensive UK tour in April, following successful support shows with The Darkness, The Streets and Super Furry Animals. Their debut single, "Half Man, Half Machine", is released by Must Destroy records on April 19.
