Our Take

Ah, the Angelic Upstarts, the punk rock legends known for their raw energy and socially conscious lyrics. Their latest album "Blood On The Terraces" is a gritty, unapologetic ode to the working class struggle, wrapped up in a chaotic whirlwind of guitar riffs and pounding drums.

From the opening track "Never 'Ad Nothin'" to the closing anthem "Solidarity," the band doesn't hold back, delivering scathing commentary on issues like unemployment, police brutality, and political corruption. Lead singer Mensi's raspy vocals cut through the noise like a chainsaw, leaving you both shaken and stirred.

The production on this album is intentionally lo-fi, giving it a sense of urgency and immediacy that is often lacking in today's polished pop punk scene. It's like getting punched in the face by a brick wall, in the best possible way.

Standout tracks include the politically charged "Who Killed Liddle Towers?" and the anthemic "Independent Anti-Socialist." Each song is a call to arms, a battle cry for the disenfranchised and the disenchanted.

Overall, "Blood On The Terraces" is a middle finger to the establishment, a rallying cry for the punks and the misfits. It's not for the faint of heart, but for those who dare to challenge the status quo, it's a breath of fresh air in a stale music industry. So get your Doc Martens on and get ready to mosh, because the Angelic Upstarts are back with a vengeance.

Angelic Upstarts

ANGELIC UPSTARTS: The Godfathers of Punk In the wild and wonderful world of punk rock, few bands have left a mark as deep and lasting as the Angelic Upstarts. Hailing from England's working class heartland, this rebellious quartet burst onto the scene in the late 1970s with a raw, urgent sound and a fearless, confrontational attitude. Led by the charismatic and supremely talented Mensi, the Angelic Upstarts quickly gained a reputation for their incendiary live shows and their unapologetically political lyrics. Songs like "Teenage Warning" and "Anti-Nazi" struck a chord with disaffected youth across Britain, giving voice to the frustrations and anger of a generation caught in the grip of economic decline and social unrest. But don't let their tough exterior fool you - beneath the leather jackets and spiky haircuts, the Angelic Upstarts have always had a softer side. Tracks like "Solidarity" and "England" showcase their talent for writing heartfelt, anthemic ballads that speak to the struggles and triumphs of everyday people. With a career spanning over four decades and a legion of devoted fans around the world, the Angelic Upstarts are truly punk rock royalty. Their fearless, uncompromising spirit continues to inspire new generations of musicians and activists, proving that sometimes, the loudest voices are the ones that need to be heard the most. So crank up the volume, raise a middle finger to the establishment, and let the music of the Angelic Upstarts set your soul on fire.
