Our Take

If there’s one thing that’s certain in this topsy-turvy world, it’s that Bad Manners knows how to bring the party. The legendary ska band’s compilation album “The Albums 1980-85” is a rollicking good time from start to finish.

With their infectious blend of ska, punk, and pop sensibilities, Bad Manners has been getting fans on their feet and skanking away for years. This collection of their albums from the early 80s is a masterclass in fun-loving, feel-good music.

Tracks like “Special Brew” and “Lip Up Fatty” are guaranteed to get any party started, with their catchy hooks and irresistible grooves. Frontman Buster Bloodvessel’s larger-than-life persona shines through on every song, adding an extra layer of charm to the band’s already irresistible sound.

But it’s not all just about the party vibes – Bad Manners also have a socially conscious side, with songs like “Suicide Avenue” tackling important issues with a healthy dose of wit and satire.

So if you’re in the mood for some good old-fashioned ska punk fun, look no further than Bad Manners’ “The Albums 1980-85”. It’s a riotous romp through the band’s early career, and a surefire way to put a smile on your face. Cheers to that, mate!
