Our Take

BAD MANNERS have always been known for their over-the-top, larger-than-life personas and their latest release, "Heavy Petting," stays true to form. This white vinyl edition adds a touch of class to an otherwise raucous album.

From the opening track, "Lip Up Fatty," it's clear that BAD MANNERS are here to party. The infectious ska beats and cheeky lyrics are sure to get even the most reluctant listener up on their feet. Frontman Buster Bloodvessel's larger-than-life vocals shine throughout the album, adding a fun and playful element to each track.

One standout moment is the cover of Sam Cooke's classic "Cupid," which BAD MANNERS transforms into a bouncy ska masterpiece. The band's energy and enthusiasm are infectious, making it impossible not to sing along.

Despite the fun and frolicking tone of "Heavy Petting," there are moments of introspection sprinkled throughout. Tracks like "Just a Feeling" and "Since You've Gone Away" showcase a more tender side to the band, adding depth to an otherwise light-hearted album.

Overall, "Heavy Petting" is a playful and energetic romp through the world of ska music. BAD MANNERS may not take themselves too seriously, but their music is undeniably infectious and impossible to resist. So grab a drink, put on your dancing shoes, and let BAD MANNERS take you on a wild ride. Cheers!
