Victorian style punks, The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing have dropped a lyric video for Baby Farmer from their new album Double Negative. The song actually takes inspiration from a historical serial killer, as explained by bassist Marc Burrows
“This is the story of Amelia Dyer, a ‘baby farmer’. She would offer to find homes for unwanted children for a fee, then usually drown the baby and pocket the cash. She’s thought to have killed around 400 babies between 1871 and 1896, making her one of history’s most prolific serial killers. We gave the story an occult twist, with old Father Thames, the river god eventually putting his foot down. It’s one of Andy’s most twisted lyrics. Musically, this is a taught little number, nodding to 80s punk on both sides of the Atlantic with a dash of NWOBHM.”
