Ex-Test Icicles man, Sam Mehran is to release his first (and last) album under his Outer Limit Recordings alias.
Mehran started using the moniker shortly after the dance-punk outfit’s demise but, despite tracks floating online, there were never any proper releases.
Now, however, the American-born musician will release a retrospective of sorts in the form of Singles, Demos and Rarities (2007-2010) on 15 April via Weird World. The collection will come out as a double LP, tallying at 24 songs in all.
You can get a taster of what to expect by streaming tracks ‘Sugar Pie’ and ‘Liberty’ below:
