its been a long time coming but finally the debut single from sheffield legends reverend and the makers, fronted by enigmatic punk/poet/frontman jon mcclure &amp; his 6 piece band is here. produced by jagz kooner and mixed by cenzo townsend, this first single is a massive wild eyed statement of intent. a record that instantly grabs you by the scruff of the neck and sounds like all your indie rock dreams mashed together in one band. heavyweight champion of the world has all the swagger of manchesters finest with a lyricist that puts almost everybody else in the shade. as if that wasnt enough, flick to the b sides 18-30, with its wry commentary on boozy package holidays and singalong anthemic qualities, and its patently obvious that this is the start of something special. for good measure the 7 also comes with exclusive poem the last resort performed with reverend hero john cooper clarke. the cd comes with exclusives in the shape of two mixes by jagz kooner. first a club mix of heavyweight champion of the world and also an extended rework of 18-30, plus the radio edit of heavyweight champion of the world. on wall of sound
