Our Take

GORILLA BISCUITS' Start Today is like a perfectly brewed cup of English breakfast tea - strong, bold, and guaranteed to wake you the bloody hell up. This record is a no-nonsense, straight-to-the-point explosion of pure punk energy that will have you pogo-ing around your living room faster than you can say "cheeky Nando's".

From the opening track "New Direction" to the closing notes of "Stand Still", the album is a relentless assault on your eardrums in the best way possible. The guitars are crunchy, the drums are thunderous, and frontman Civ's vocals are as sharp as a freshly forged Excalibur.

Tracks like "Start Today" and "Cats and Dogs" are anthems for the disaffected youth of today, with lyrics that perfectly capture the frustration and anger of growing up in a world that seems hell-bent on driving you insane. And let's not forget the iconic cover art, featuring a gorilla in a bowler hat - because nothing says "punk rock" quite like a well-dressed primate.

So, put on your Docs, spike up your hair, and crank up the volume on Start Today. This album is a bloody masterpiece and a must-listen for any self-respecting punk rock aficionado. Just be warned - you may find yourself stage diving off your sofa before you know it. Cheers, Gorilla Biscuits, you absolute legends.

About the artist

Gorilla Biscuits

New York hardcore legends Gorilla Biscuits have been causing mayhem in the scene since the late 80s. Known for their energetic live shows and powerful, introspective lyrics, these guys are not your average punks. Fronted by the charismatic Anthony "Civ" Civarelli, Gorilla Biscuits blend the aggression of hardcore with the melodic sensibilities of pop punk. Their infectious blend of fast-paced riffs and sing-along choruses has garnered them a cult following that spans generations. Their seminal album "Start Today" is a must-listen for any fan of hardcore music. Tracks like "New Direction" and "Stand Still" are anthems of the genre, guaranteed to get any crowd moving. But what sets Gorilla Biscuits apart from the rest is their commitment to positivity and unity. In a scene often defined by aggression and nihilism, these guys preach a message of inclusivity and acceptance. Their lyrics touch on themes of self-empowerment and standing up for what you believe in. With a discography that's stood the test of time and a live show that's second to none, Gorilla Biscuits are a force to be reckoned with in the world of hardcore music. If you haven't experienced the magic of a Gorilla Biscuits show, do yourself a favor and catch them live. You won't be disappointed.
