The Last Days Of Rome EP CD Just when you thought contemporary music had nothing new and exciting to offer here come SNOG to save the day!!! ‘The Last Days of Rome’ is the new SNOG single (and the first single from the forthcoming album of the same name). Is it Leonard Cohen (with its perversely apocalyptic lyric and delivery) or is it Public Enemy (with its slinkey hip-hop beat and grinding guitar motif)? Well, what it really is, is something completely new! Sliding between genres like they slip between hot-tubs. ‘The Last Days of Rome’ is dark, powerful and totally catchy, a sleek meaningful beast.

Produced by The Calculators (The Faint, Adalita and many others) and featuring the sweet voice of Mr. Royce Doherty, the collapse of civilization has never been this groovey before!
Adding to the celebratory atmosphere is an extrordinary downtempo remix by UK Electro legend Sir Real and three brand new tracks which will not appear on the forthcoming album. ‘The Sickness’ is a collaboration with Berlin ambient beatmeister Hecq, ‘The Prisoner’ a collaboration with deviant dubstepper The Namshub of Enki and the authentic bluegrass number(!) The Day the Towers Fell was written for Grand Ol Opry star Porter Wagoner. Closing out the single is a most surprising acoustic version of The Last Days of Rome. Party like it’s 699A.D!!!
