National Average: CD, Cassette, T-Shirt + Ruler StickersNATIONAL AVERAGE, the surprise new album from BIG SPECIAL. It's a record in which the band lose none of that early fire or potency, yet still expand their sound to incorporate elements of funk, lavishing it with their characteristic darkness and black humour, and honestly representing their lives in the only way they know how. It focusses on brotherhood, and pressing on through the changes in their lives, big and small. Commenting on the new album,

including recent singles 'SLUGLIFE'
