Our Take

In a shockingly unexpected turn of events, the iconic punk rock band The Vibrators have unearthed a treasure trove of demos from their tumultuous 1978 recording sessions. Aptly titled "Splitting Up Demos 1978," this album serves as a time capsule, offering a raw and unfiltered glimpse into the band's creative process during a period of intense turmoil.

From the moment the needle hits the vinyl, there's a palpable sense of urgency and energy that permeates every track. Songs like "I Need a Slave" and "24 Hour People" showcase the band's signature blend of brash vocals, frenetic guitar riffs, and driving bass lines. It's as if The Vibrators took all their frustrations and channeled them into a sonic onslaught that hits like a punch to the gut.

But what truly sets this album apart is the sense of camaraderie and camaraderie that shines through in each track. Despite the band's well-documented internal struggles, there's an undeniable chemistry that elevates these demos beyond mere rough sketches. It's as if The Vibrators are on a mission to prove that, even in their darkest moments, they were capable of creating something truly remarkable.

So, dear reader, do yourself a favour and give "Splitting Up Demos 1978" a spin. It's a reminder of a time when punk rock was more than just a genre – it was a way of life. And who knows, you might just find yourself pogoing around your living room in a burst of rebellious energy. The Vibrators may have split up, but their music lives on.
