Our Take

The VARUKERS have been churning out gritty punk anthems since the late '70s, and their latest offering "Damned And Defiant" is no exception. The band's fierce energy and raw attitude are on full display throughout this album, making it a tantalizing listen for any punk enthusiast.

From the opening track "Rebel" to the explosive closer "No Masters No Slaves," the VARUKERS deliver a no-nonsense punk rock assault that will have you moshing in your living room in no time. The band's relentless guitar riffs and thunderous drums provide the perfect backdrop for frontman Rat's gravelly vocals, adding a visceral edge to each track.

But what truly sets "Damned And Defiant" apart is the band's ability to inject political commentary into their music without sacrificing an ounce of their punk spirit. Tracks like "Government's To Blame" and "We Don't Serve Their Purpose" delve into the frustrations of societal issues, while still managing to keep things fun and lively.

Overall, "Damned And Defiant" is a raucous and unapologetic punk rock masterpiece that showcases the VARUKERS at the top of their game. Whether you're a die-hard fan of the genre or just looking to add some rebellious energy to your playlist, this album is a must-listen. So grab your leather jacket, turn up the volume, and let the VARUKERS take you on a wild ride through the chaos and defiance of punk rock. Cheers to that!

The band's ferocious energy is contagious, turning even the most stoic of audience members into a seething mass of bodies flailing and thrashing in unison. Their no-holds-barred approach to touring has earned them a reputation as one of the hardest-working bands in the scene, playing countless shows across the globe and leaving a trail of chaos in their wake. While VARUKERS may not be everyone's cup of tea, there's no denying their impact on the punk landscape. Their unapologetic attitude and unwavering dedication to their craft have endeared them to legions of fans who appreciate their no-frills approach to hardcore music. Love them or hate them, VARUKERS are here to stay, and they're not going down without a fight.
