Description
Thee Headcoats make their position clear with “The Reason Why We Didn’t Sound Like the Smiths”, a new 7-inch on Damaged Goods (DAMGOOD661), backed with the exclusive “They Call It War”.
Taken from the forthcoming album Children of the Sect, the A-side arrives in a Smiths-inspired sleeve featuring Dave Davies: a pointed visual joke that connects Billy Childish’s irreverent humour with his affection for The Kinks’ R&B roots.
For Headcoats followers, the appeal goes beyond the title. “They Call It War” is exclusive to this single, making the pairing worth investigating even if the album is already on your list.
Released on 6 November 2026 at 45 RPM, this is a distinctive addition for Billy Childish collectors and devotees of the British garage underground. Two new songs, one unmistakable attitude, and no danger of confusing the band’s allegiances.
