Our Take

Step right up, folks, and get ready for a wild ride with the Pietasters' latest offering, "Willis"! This album will have you longing for a time when ska ruled the airwaves, and dancing like nobody's watching is the only way to survive.

From the moment the needle drops on this colourful vinyl, you're transported to a world where horns blare, guitars wail, and the rhythm is so infectious you won't be able to sit still. The Pietasters have mastered the art of blending ska, reggae, and punk into a cocktail that will leave you begging for more.

Tracks like "Maggie Mae" and "Shallow Pockets" will have you skanking your heart out, while slower tunes like "Cloverleaf Mews" will have you swaying in tender melancholy. The band's energy is palpable throughout the record, and their chemistry is undeniable.

Frontman Steve Jackson's gravelly vocals will charm you, while the rest of the band brings a level of tightness that can only come from years of playing together.

Overall, "Willis" is a testament to the Pietasters' staying power in the ska scene. So grab your dancing shoes, pour yourself a pint, and let the music take you on a whirlwind journey that you won't soon forget. With its undeniable charm and infectious grooves, this album is a must-have for any fan of good old-fashioned ska. Cheers to the Pietasters for keeping the spirit of ska alive and well!
