News: Inca Babies release a new album

UKs tribal twang blues trash post punkers  Inca Babies are back with a new album: Death Message Blues. We have been waiting for a long time for new material , 22 years to be exact, and it doesn’t disappoint. The sound is still raw, bluesy twangy and sexy, but the album understandably is more thoughtful and melancholy. Watch for the full review of the new record in next issue of the Drop Dead Magazine in the mean time enjoy a classic Inca babies video and a brand new song from Death Message Blues.
