Our Take
Our Take
Ah, Crossing The Red Sea With The Adverts, what a delightfully rebellious journey we're embarking upon with this punk gem. Released in 1978, this album is a epitome of raw energy and unapologetic attitude that defined the British punk scene.
From the opening track "One Chord Wonders," it's clear that The Adverts are not here to play nice. Lead singer TV Smith's snarling vocals cut through the thrashing guitars like a chainsaw through butter, creating a sense of urgency and defiance that is impossible to ignore.
Tracks like "Gary Gilmore's Eyes" and "Bored Teenagers" showcase the band's ability to combine catchy hooks with socially conscious lyrics, addressing topics such as consumerism and disillusionment with a cheeky grin.
The production on Crossing The Red Sea With The Adverts is delightfully lo-fi, adding to the album's gritty charm. It's like listening to a live show in a dingy basement, with the sweat and beer stains practically dripping from the speakers.
Overall, this album is a must-listen for any punk aficionado. The Adverts may not have achieved the same level of commercial success as some of their contemporaries, but their influence on the genre cannot be denied. So grab a leather jacket, spike up your hair, and dive headfirst into the anarchic world of The Adverts. Trust me, you won't regret it.
