8 tracks from the very top drawer recorded and produced by, and featuring on keyboards, Magazine’s very own, Dave Formula.

This is what they are saying about it…
“Extra ordinary Magazine-ish. Rubbery upfront bass guitar perfected by Barry Adamson and shards of John McGeoch like guitar…” – MOJO Magazine
“Shades of Killing Joke and Magazine. Sounds like goth-pop overlap of Sisters Of Mercy and The Damned” – UNCUT Magazine
“Chunky rhythms and punchy bass of ‘Empires & Dance’-era Simple Minds, with a smooth production sheen of Japan and Ultravox with the sensibilities of The Stranglers” – VIVE LE ROCK Magazine

The third Federal Charm album, and the first featuring the new line-up of original members Paul Bowe (guitar) and L.D. Morawski (bass) and now with new drummer, Josh Zahler, and new singer, Tom Guyer.
‘Passenger’ was recorded & produced by Federal Charm & John Simms, who is also sound engineer for fellow Stockport band, ‘Blossoms’.
“John was really good to work with,” says Paul, “He’s highly technical, has a great set of ears and commands an invaluable ability to locate and add that missing ingredient to make a song stand out from the crowd. Previously, the recording process for the first two Federal Charm albums was very much, “Strat in? Go! Les Paul? Go!…” For ‘Passenger’, a great deal of care and attention was taken with the pre-production, which ultimately benefited the all-round sound. It’s a heavier album. There was no way to tame the beast.”
11 tracks from the very top drawer, split over two sides of pristine slab-vinyl, housed in a handsome cardboard sleeve with poster insert on the ever-popular LP format. Available in either oil slick black or snow blizzard white. Take your pick.
