Bugger Me is Sam Coomes’ first ever solo album. Coomes is probably best known as half of the long-running underground pop duo Quasi, the other half being Janet Weiss, herself better known as the drummer for Sleater-Kinney.

The record is, in Coomes’ own words, “Suicide meets The Beach Boys. Not the sophisticated Pet Sounds Beach Boys, but more like Surfer Girl stuff. More conscious reference points were Chris Montez or Timmy Thomas.”
