Our Take

Ah, Cockney Rejects, the East London punk rock legends who've been causing chaos since the '70s. Their latest offering, "East End Babylon", is a riotous ode to working-class rebellion and rowdy nights in the city.

From the opening track, "Bad Man", the Rejects waste no time in hitting you with their trademark brash attitude and gritty guitar riffs. Frontman Jeff Turner's gravelly vocals are as defiant as ever, spitting out lyrics about street fighting, football hooliganism, and, of course, the East End.

Tracks like "We Are the Firm" and "War on the Terraces" pay homage to the band's roots in the football terrace subculture, with anthemic choruses that are sure to get any crowd chanting along. Meanwhile, songs like "East End Babylon" and "Join the Rejects" showcase the band's more melodic side, with catchy hooks and sing-along refrains.

While the production may not be the slickest, it only adds to the raw, punk rock energy of the album. This isn't music for the faint-hearted - it's loud, brash, and unapologetically in your face.

In conclusion, "East End Babylon" is a rollicking good time from start to finish. If you're a fan of old-school punk rock with a British twist, this album is definitely worth a listen. So grab a pint, crank up the volume, and let the Cockney Rejects transport you to the streets of East London. Cheers, mate!
