As an extra bonus for the Blaggers lovers, here's the one-sided EP with their dubby bass-heavy version of The Clash's 'Guns Of Brixton'. As with most things Clash-inspired, I have a soft spot for this clever [...]

With the British summer seemingly over, I needed something a bit warm and cuddly to perk me up so grabbed this and threw it on the platter. It's been quite a while since I'd heard [...]

When I first got this as a demo tape (remember them?) sometime in the mid-80's I'd already fallen in love with the band. I caught them live in the early days and had a blast. Semi-serious sillyness for the fun of it spliced to some simple leg-stomping tunes guaranteed a good time, and that's pretty [...]

If I need to introduce you to the Amebix, then something's gone very wrong with your punk rock education. Hit Google, read and learn, and you'll quickly realise that they're one of the most crucial bands in our history. They're lumped in with the anarcho crew but that really does them a bit of a [...]

Once upon a time, punk rock turned up uninvited and gatecrashed polite society. Before too long, spiky herberts everywhere took the sound and attitude and really made it theirs.

Here are a handful of shots from crusty hardcore punks Born/Dead's last ever gig on UK soil. It was a belter of a night and a great way for the band to go out. I'd almost forgotten that I had these but better late than never eh? I'm crap at editing and sharing pics (that's [...]

Hold A Grudge are classic mid-paced hardcore, the good old solid kind that'll get you through a bad day with enough left over for a pleasant supper. While at first it may seem like there's nothing particularly groundbreaking about the sound, listen a bit more closely and you'll find there's plenty of originality on show, [...]
