Happy Happy Birthday to Me Records is doing the honors of pressing this single up and getting it out into the world. The sleeve is a three color screen-printed fold-over sleeve and the vinyl comes with a download card. The artwork and color combo is a nod to the band's third single "Stop Killing Me" from 1987. "I Won't Care '' is a perfect slice of dreamy indiepop goodness with an effortless Tracy vocal and a guitar hook that will get stuck in your head for days. "Everybody Needs Somebody to Hate'' is a strummy light 60s insprired track with Paul taking the vocal. The single will be available on cherry red vinyl and black vinyl via HHBTM and on canary yellow vinyl via Rough Trade as an indie exclusive. Limited to a one-time pressing, so don't miss out. The Primitives won hearts and minds in 1988 with their debut album Lovely and its Top Ten UK hit single "Crash." They would have more charting singles over the course of the next four years, releasing two further albums before disbanding in 1992. They reformed in 2009 and have since released two albums and a handful of singles.

They reformed in 2009 and have since released two albums and a handful of singles. This single is something of a one-off, a single released because the band felt they had some good songs that deserved to be heard—and they’re right, it does deserve to be heard. While next year is still months away, but 2023 will be the 35th anniversary of Lovely, so you can expect some activity to celebrate that delightful album’s birthday. Don’t Know Where To Start does what the best pop music does: it draws you in with superb vocals, catchy melodies, and a fun vibe. New to The Primitives, and don’t know where to start? Right here, friend.   Available on black vinyl with regular jacket, or pink vinyl with a screen-print jacket.]]> Tracklisting:
