RT-Zed have announced that their live album "Crunch - Live At The Bullingdon Club" will be available to order from the 25th April. The album, a recording of their debut gig in Oxford from 2012, will be dispatched from the 11th of May and is priced at only £7.99 but will also be available at the Westworld Weekend on the 9th.
Demand will be high and this will be a limited edition release. The final copies of the "Return To Zero" album sold out instantly so where this album won't be as limited as that I would suggest getting your order in sooner rather than later!

Smiley appears on the brand new EP by Jonzip which was released digitally today.

1. Left Of Your Rights
2. Kill Your Darlings
3. Wrong Door Raid
4. 1919 (Battle Of George Square)
