Behold the 36th release on our record label in collaboration with the legendary Do It Thissen

“The Xoxo’s” by The Xoxo’s!!!

The debut album by DIY punk rockers formed in the nest of Delicious Clam by members of Big Break and Mouthparts to create “evil power pop” to scratch the melodic punk itch.

Released online in May some felt it was a shame to go without a physical release and luckily Sheffield music don Jon Downing of Do It Thissen suggested doing a limited lathe cut vinyl collab release. And so here we are with 20 copies available to purchase at 8am on the Do It Thissen bandcamp for Bandcamp Friday!!

Record heads have been ready to snipe this on release so good luck to you!!

FFO : Ramones, The Number Ones, Exploding Hearts, Dark Thoughts, Lemonheads

Sandwiched in between Hard As Nails on Thursday and R Loomes on Saturday we have Dutch supergroup The Hobknobs making their way to Clam on Friday night.

Featuring members of Lewsberg and , this delightful trio tread a path between mid era Velvet Underground pop to Jonathan Richman to Helvetia to Ida to so much and so on, with an unprecedented sense of nuance, hearts and arts. Helmets off, their newest release, is simply stunning. A real delight all round.

Support comes from our old faves Sofftness, straight from the beautiful city of Nottingham and newly signed to iconic label and of course local icon Owen Blue, this time with his band, The Still Lifes.

Tickets in advance via skiddle tha knows.

NEW RELEASE!

DC035 / SSH069
Thee Mightees - I Don’t Agree With Thee Mightees

Limited edition lathe cut vinyl 10" EP out 11th September 2026 on Safe Suburban Home and Delicious Clam Records. Pre-orders via both labels bandcamps NOW!

https://deliciousclamrecords.bandcamp.com/album/i-dont-agree-with-thee-mightees

3 years on from their last release of any kind. 6 years since their last single. 8 years since their last EP. 10 years since they released an album. Has the world moved on from jangle-pop? Or is it having a stunning resurgence that is going to be supercharged by this, the brand new Mightees EP?! We’re going to go with the latter and we think you’ll agree. 7 songs of perfectly crafted pop, incubated for half a decade before being released to an unexpectant but grateful public.

Composed and practiced occasionally by Tom Roper (Best Friends, Big Break), Tom Shore (L'Amour Des Rêves, The Bohos), Ben Russell (Big Break, The Hipshakes) and Chris Wood (Thee Mightees), recorded by the maestros at legendary DIY space and studio JT Soar (Phil Booth & Robbie Newman) and mixed and mastered by Zac Barfoot (Sun Drift, Faint Paint, Bingo Records, Delicious Clam’s in-house engineer). The digital recordings were then ready to enter the physical world, being passed over into the craftsmanlike hands of Sam Stacpoole (Holiday Ghosts) in his workshop in Cornwall, to be cut into 50 x 10” vinyl discs of beauty. Continuing the journey back to Delicious Clam HQ, it was decorated and stickered by the ever-present custodians of that fine institution, before finally being enveloped in artwork by Sheffield’s own Rowan Roberts (Hunk Print), along with a beautiful transparent protective sleeve, ready to be shipped out to you, the paying public.

“I Don't Agree with Thee Mightees.

Thee Mightees don't exactly agree either. First up they tell you this pretty plainly: (song name and main hook) "I don't agree". Next, you're drenched in warm, pretty imagery of nostalgia for weekends gone past and closed down nightclubs. Then immediately a serving of chilled, nothing-you-can-do-about-it contentment: "Don't waste time covering cracks, let the light shine in and don't look back". Are Thee Mightees a killer in the movies? Or just a dog waiting for food? Is it just Gungoo?

You may conclude from this that something's wrong with the message. I would strongly disagree with you on that. It is in fact the main benefit of having the lead vocals and writing of a band split over three distinct voices, and three different perspectives. Who needs concept bands anyway? I think we could all agree that would be painting oneself into a corner.

Anyway, Thee Mightees are actually a band of some of the highest concepts around: timelessness, simplicity, perfected temperature (cool) and beautifully melodic throughout. Never better displayed than this extended player. I think you'll agree.”

Proud to present the brand new release on DC records!!

DC034 - Hard As Nails - AI/Stray Cats

Dance-punk emerging from Sheffield’s thriving DIY scene, the four-piece announce their debut release on Delicious Clam Records.

Recorded by Eoin Loveless (Drenge) at an industrial estate in the sweltering sun on the Costa del Steel City, AI and Stray Cats are a glimpse into the band’s raw and unapologetic sound.

Formed in Sheffield, and hailing from Sheffield, Manchester and Cambridge, Hard as Nails are now split between Sheffield and Brighton.

In the world of Elon Musk, 6 quid pints, and a failing social system, synthesis and sampling pave the way to a brighter future.

As Artificial Intelligence sucks the creativity and life from everything and everyone it touches, Hard as Nails seek to fill a void, driven by haunting synths and pummelling basslines.

A strange sadness is often the reality. The witching hour forces a lonesome light to be left on for those in need.

Nobody is safe from the plague. Be the antidote.

Limited Lathe Cut 7”Vinyl out 06/08/26 on Delicious Clam Records. PREORDER NOW ON BANDCAMP.

HARD AS NAILS. (Soft as s**t).
