The Soup Dragons - Raw TV Products (Singles & Rarities 1985-88)

Before they became world-famous for their baggy-era anthem "I'm Free," The Soup Dragons were one of the most exciting and chaotic bands in the UK’s C86 and indie-pop scene. Raw TV Junkies is a definitive collection that celebrates the band’s formative years between 1985 and 1988. Lovingly curated by the original lineup—Sean Dickson, Sushil K. Dade, Jim McCulloch, and Ross Sinclair—this release serves as a bridge between their jagged, Buzzcocks-inspired punk beginnings and their more melodic, psychedelic future.

The album is a treasure trove for fans, featuring early singles, legendary Peel Sessions, and rarities that have been difficult to find for decades. To ensure the best possible listening experience, all tracks were remastered in 2022 by Sean Dickson himself. Accompanied by insightful liner notes from renowned music journalist Pete Paphides, this collection isn't just a compilation—it’s a curated history of a band that helped define the sound of the British underground in the mid-80s.
