One of the best videos with the Levellers (well you can see me at 1:16 almost in the middle of the screen). Recorded at Paradiso in Amsterdam november 2008.
Everything you could possibly want from a Levellers tune is present and correct: frenzied strings: check; pounding drums - check; lyrics about living your own life and freedom – double check. But somehow it all manages to sound fresh, exciting and ,dare I say?...relevant again. www. music-news. com
Driven by punk guitars and bass but given a folky stomp by lanky Jon’s screaming fiddle and the sing-along choruses, “A Life Less Ordinary” returns to the frequent Levellers lyrical theme of contrasting the leftfield or anti-consumerist lifestyle with the mainstream. www. rock-metal-music-reviews. com
The two tracks taken from the forthcoming studio album are available to download free until April 3rd from WWW. LETTERSFROMTHEUNDERGROUND. COM
