We are a three piece PUNK band...
We love to shout & scream at inanimate objects, we love to make noise, we love to play...we get compared to Crass, Pistols, Subhumans etc.
Heres a few kind words by Peter DontCare of Nihilism on the prowl webzine...
Yipppeee we finally get to hear the Antibodies in a real studio with a raging mix, levels in the red and all the snot you can fit into a microphone booth. Y'know what, all that waffle I've been blurting out about this band over the last decade is at long last starting to roar out the speakers in the form it was meant and should be heard. Yep all those sweaty scout hut rehearsals that primed their directive so long ago finally comes to fruition. I'm still coming to terms with the fact you can hear all those rabid elements in full sonic audio. Those string slides, chunky bass runs and precision drum rolls we once imagined took place and were lost in those early demos, are at long last bought to the fore in 3 pristine rants. These Essex fuckers mean business and will hopefully be blasting out on a bigger stage for some deserved action real soon. It's surprising what a decent production can do for a bands morals and these dissidents morals have taken a severe dive into excellence here. 'I Ruin Everything' is always gonna be the top of my shitlist, coz all that "negativity is our positivity", and aint that the truth!? Pete, Warlock and Paulo are the Antibodies that could ruin your safe spiky life if you were expecting another predictable, plastic copy cat punk band. But im afraid these Harlow hoodlums won't let that happen. Pete's rancid vocals and brutally honest reflections of real life as it is, are an hard act to follow. The rocking continues on an acidic news bulletin called 'Assasinate Me' complete with bass, drum and guitar solo giving this trio the full mix of opinions, noise and frightening distain, nice one. Last but by no means least, we get an oldie but goodie called 'Concrete Cancer', which is served up with a supreme mix and don't it make all the difference, as we hear the soundtrack of the demise of Harlow, as seen through the eyes of its structurly unsound inhabitants and local outcasts who go by the name of Antibodies. This song comes with the brilliant line of "im drowning, im sinking I hope your dogshit breaks my fall" before the hometown blues goes Terminal. This is a sneak preview to the long overdue Canadian 45 release featuring 4 tracks of Harlow hedonism in an age of rage. Can't fucking wait!
Well this was a long time coming, over a decade in fact, but the wait is finally over thanks to Choking Hold records in Canada for sniffing out a quality punk outfit when they hear it. How come home grown British punk labels don't seem to notice whats on their own doorstep? Well their loss and our gain coz Harlow's Antibodies were always a band that given the right studio enviroment could show us exactly what they're capable of. And thank gawd we can now hear them in their infinite glory on black plastic. This is definitely the best 45 and debut release this year. Last years promo CD featuring a taster of studio tracks was good, but this fuckers excellent! Hurtling out yer speakers like nails in a dirty bomb with a raging mix, no flab, very Lean and extremely mean with all the punk snot you could fit in an envelope and post to Canada. As the eery guitar licks in for opening track 'Reality Cheque' amidst feedback, oil tanker drums and a snarly bass plus those Dalek like vocals you know your hearing something worth writing about. Lead singer Pete spits out a long list of real life grime and ignorance in the eye of the storm before once more it closes as it begun in a subdued but definitely sinister format. 'Plan B' which is rapidly becoming my fave Antibodies song of all time is next. The sentiments about how life is cheap in a disposable age are all very true but its the actual delivery and and arrangements of this particular number that hits home every time. Great back up vocals that add a whole new dimension to their sound and Pete's stabbing lead snarl exposing the shit. You could almost hear elements of the Dead Kennedy's on this track, it has that same sorta vibe but from a very English perspective and even a Crass influence rears its dark head for a few seconds as the last verse gets detonated...they close with a defiant..."I'm the body in the forest that no-one ever finds, I'm a deserter in this army of lies." 'Hymns For Dregs' is a heads down no messing buzz saw workout that would give the kids in the blitzin outfits a run for their money as its spat out at an hyperactive rate and is over before you can scream...."the buses never arrive and the people are cunts". 'Glamour Of Backwardness' has transformed from the name of an Antibodies collection that was self released a few years back, into an actual song and its good 'un. We get to hear of the bands love affair with another long list of bogey men, despots, human failings and abuse that is usually found in most Government Policy's these days, but now we have our very own soundtrack to all crap. Perfect! This red white 'n' black colored bomb see's one little boy patting another big boy and comes with a much needed lyric manifesto thats stamped on top of a brick throwing youngster on the streets of Belfast. An Informative, entertaining and realistic punk rock release for the 21st century.
Oh and before i forget there's an Antibodies album penned in for release in 2008!
