Our Take

COCK SPARRER's latest album, "True Grit," is a raucous romp through the streets of punk rock glory. The veteran band, known for their energetic live shows and tongue-in-cheek lyrics, does not disappoint with this latest offering.

From the opening chords of "One By One," you know you're in for a wild ride. The catchy riffs, pounding drums, and anthemic gang vocals are all present and accounted for. It's like being punched in the face by a wall of sound, but in a good way.

Tracks like "Out on an Island" and "Gonna Be Alright" showcase the band's ability to blend melody with aggression, creating a sound that is both infectious and exhilarating. The lyrics are full of wit and wisdom, with frontman Colin McFaull's gravelly voice adding a sense of authenticity to every word.

"True Grit" is a reminder that, despite their age, COCK SPARRER are still at the top of their game. They have managed to stay true to their roots while also pushing boundaries and experimenting with new sounds. This album is a testament to their enduring legacy in the punk rock scene.

So put on your leather jacket, grab a pint, and crank up the volume. COCK SPARRER are back, and they're as rowdy and rebellious as ever. "True Grit" is a must-listen for fans of classic punk rock with a modern twist.

With their signature blend of anthemic sing-alongs and blistering guitar riffs, this band may have been flying under the radar for some, but their influence on the punk scene cannot be overstated. COCK SPARRER's lyrics are a perfect mix of social commentary, personal introspection, and good old-fashioned punk rebellion. Tracks like "Take 'Em All" and "England Belongs to Me" have become anthems for working-class punks everywhere, while songs like "Because You're Young" showcase a more sensitive side to the band. Their live shows are legendary, with frontman Colin McFaull leading the charge with his charismatic stage presence and the rest of the band delivering tight, high-energy performances that never fail to get the crowd jumping. Despite their long history, COCK SPARRER shows no signs of slowing down. Their latest album, "Forever," proves that they still have plenty of life left in them, with tracks like "Every Step of the Way" and "In This City" showcasing a band that is as relevant and vital as ever. Whether you're a die-hard punk fan or just a casual listener, COCK SPARRER is a band that demands your attention. So grab a pint, crank up the volume, and join the riotous fun that is a COCK SPARRER show. Because when it comes to British punk, these lads truly are the kings.
