PUNKS NOT DAD -




PUNKS NOT DAD – IN ME SHED (DIGITAL DOWNLOAD SINGLE ONLY)


Are the kids laughing at all us old punks? Are the old punks not settling down? Are they having kids and still being punk dads? We can only speculate on this new craze, or is it a mid life crisis? Who knows, but it’s still fun as hell for us and testimony that punk isn’t dead, or should that read punks not dad? Instead of retiring to our sheds to look at porn, plant some flowers were kicking out the jams (probably making some strawberry jam too). If you hear a noise from next doors shed, be warned – it could be some ageing punk. There’s even a cool video to go with this, featuring none other than Lisa Rogers – I would have thought that Bill Oddy would have been more appropriate.

SOUTHPORT - ARMCHAIRSUPPORTERS CD





SOUTHPORT – ARMCHAIRSUPPORTERS CD


First new full length in over 10 years and boasting members from UK stalwart bands BLOCKO, SNUFF and MIDWAY STILL – is enough for any fan of tuneful melodic songs. In between some hard hitting LEATHERFACE styled moments, is a trip of up beat 60’s tuneage and late 70’s mod fare – all dished up with style and flare. The song ‘White Lightning’ is nothing short of fantastic and my favourite song on the whole CD. Though this is a full length of well crafted and passionate songs, which didn’t instantly hit me – but you know those songs that take a few plays usually end up staying with you longer. Being pretty much the same age as these guys, I’m as much a supporter of armchairs myself.

GAN -


GAN – DO THAT AGAIN. AGAIN!?! CD

Before the explosion of grunge, never mind the explosion of Green Day there were bands doing melodic poppy punky h/c and before it became a clique that was bastardised. GAN were one of those bands, full of youthful energy and teenage angst. With their hearts on their sleeves and fingers on the right chords they riffed their way through a collection of fine tunes and probably broke the hearts of many a Descendants female fan. Here we have a collection of 24 songs, from their vinyl output back in the day – sounding great and sticking memorable tunes in your head while you go about your business. A really nice booklet full of photos, lyrics etc only complements the innocence of this time, when it was real and before the bandwagon jumpers latched on. Awesome covers of Bad Religion, Nena etc.
