Paradise Now - I'm So Glad 7"


Pretty obscure 7" from unknown UK band Paradise Now.  They were from South Shields, Tyne + Wear, close to Newcastle.
Indie postpunk tunes here. No info on the band to be find though.

I got this copy from an ebay-seller that sells stuff that isn't listed anywhere else, not even on Discogs (well now it is). I think the seller worked for a zine as the records come with promo or handwritten letter from the band. Paradise Now even claim to be the best thing to come out of the Newcastle area since Brown Ale!

Wow! Great 7" but don't forget Zoviet France from Newcastle, one of the greatest projects ever :)

Zoviet France off course! Really into them. Sam them years ago in a church here in Belgium.
Actually, it's the band's opinion on being the best in Newcastle, not mine ;)
