Release Notes:

Not as relaxed as their druggy name suggests, The Ludes combine the last gang in town
punker mentality of The Clash and The Boomtown Rats with post-punk's twitchy urgency
and punching spiky guitars and just a smidge of quirky radio friendly 80s Scot rock
(think Orange Juice). The Dark Art Of Happiness, their debut, showcases a band ready
for the long haul. Ludicrously good.
