S&L001: Various S&LCD001 [COMPILATION]
Rough Trade said: "Debut release for London/Brighton based D.I.Y. record label, Snakes and Ladders. This is a fine compilation featuring 18 tracks from ten bands all making new and exciting music. Although their names may well be new to you their ability to make classic angular D.I.Y. pop will recall some of the defining figures in modern popular music, from Wire to The Smiths and from Dexy's to The Strokes. With great certainty one would expect to see much more of these bands and this label in the coming years."
