"Surplus 1980 are releasing our first record since 2019 on Friday, December 2! This 7" single features two songs. The first, "Kremlin Gremlin (A Dull Fiddler)" is a collaboration with our good pal, G.W. Sok, who provides vocals and a brutal wordplay stab at the Russian president for his unforgiving invasion of Ukraine. The second song is a dub remix of a tune that will be on our forthcoming full-length album (due Spring 2023)."-Surplus 1980
