Our Take

Ah, the 4 SKINS - a band that's as tough and gritty as their name suggests. Their latest album, "Singles & Rarities," is a collection of some of their best tracks from their early days, along with some hard-to-find gems that will have any die-hard fan jumping for joy.

From the moment you press play, you're hit with a wave of aggressive, in-your-face punk rock that never lets up. Tracks like "One Law for Them" and "Yesterday's Heroes" are classic examples of the band's signature sound - loud, rowdy, and unapologetically British.

But what sets this album apart from their previous releases is the inclusion of some rare, never-before-heard tracks that showcase the band's versatility and range. "Plastic Gangster" and "5 More Years" offer a glimpse into a different side of the 4 SKINS, with more melodic hooks and introspective lyrics.

Overall, "Singles & Rarities" is a must-have for any fan of the 4 SKINS or punk rock in general. It's a raw, unfiltered look at a band that's been making waves in the music scene for decades, and it's a reminder of why they're still relevant today. So grab a pint, turn up the volume, and enjoy this raucous ride through the world of the 4 SKINS. Cheers!

About the artist

The 4 Skins

4 SKINS are the rambunctious, hard-hitting rockers hailing from London, making waves in the music scene with their unique blend of punk, Oi, and street rock. Known for their raucous live performances and raw, powerful lyrics, 4 SKINS have been a staple in the UK punk scene since the late 1970s. Fronted by the charismatic and larger-than-life vocalist, Gary Hodges, 4 SKINS have built a dedicated following of loyal fans who are drawn to their infectious energy and rebellious spirit. With their catchy hooks, anthemic choruses, and no-nonsense attitude, 4 SKINS are a force to be reckoned with on stage and in the studio. Their debut album, "The Good, The Bad & The 4 SKINS," released in 1982, is a classic in the punk genre, showcasing the band's gritty sound and fierce attitude. Tracks like "Chaos" and "Yesterday's Heroes" have become punk anthems, solidifying 4 SKINS' place in music history. Despite their rough-and-tumble image, 4 SKINS have also shown a more introspective side with songs like "Forgotten Hero" and "Plastic Gangsters," where they explore themes of loss, betrayal, and disillusionment. This depth and vulnerability set them apart from other punk bands of their era, making them a truly multifaceted and dynamic group. With a legacy that spans over four decades, 4 SKINS continue to inspire and influence generations of punk rockers with their unapologetic attitude and electrifying performances. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a newcomer to their music, one thing is for certain: 4 SKINS are a band that demands to be heard.
