Re-issued for the first time on LP since it's release, The Bats - Law of Things showcases what that band from the south do so well, undeniable jangle indie pop.
Recorded in 1988 (released 1990) by The Bats while they were back on home soil following stints of overseas touring, their second album follows on from the promise of their fantastic debut Daddy's Highway - and delivers!
This re-issue comes as an expanded 2xLP set featuring their 1988 EP ‘Four Songs’, as well as never heard before studio outtakes from The Law Of Things sessions.
