Ramones, Anti nowhere league, US bombs, Misfits, The Business, etc.
Rory is a metal head though so all his music taste don't really fit with own style. He likes Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Motorhead, Napalm Death, etc.
Sounds Like
A cross between the Anti nowhere league and the English Dogs. With worse vocals.
Bacchus*** are Phil, Rory and Aaron.
We are the only punk band in Shetland so I guess that makes us the United Kingdoms most northerly punk band. We started up roughly three years ago, when Phil met Rory and John. We took our influences from the old punk bands, like the anti-nowhere league, the English Dogs and the Ramones. John unfortunately left the band due to the fact that he was moving away. So we got Aaron to join and he has stuck with us for a while now.
We have been down to mainland Scotland and England a few times to play and travelled as far north as Faroe. We are currently planning a European tour in May next year.
We went to Aberdeen last year to record our six track CD at exile studios. We are hoping to head down again to record next year and we are aiming to do a full album next time, because we currently have about 30 songs to choose from.
FungalPunk CD Review:
BACCHUS - ROCKIN' ROLLIN' PUNKS
An odd little six tracker this that has a very individual sound which intermingles snippets of Oi, Irish-style shindiggery (even though they hail from Shetland), harsh guitars and some boozing style riiffs. 'We Are Bacchus' is a solid enough opener and one can almost envision the foaming tankards and bleary eyes as a piss-pots anthem is rattled out by a very promising outfit. 'You're Crazy' is a meatier affair with the vocals containing an almost indifferent sneering inflection and the chorus being another catchy piece. So far the jobs a good un' and 'Brotherly Hate' and 'Stand Up And Be Counted' are 2 more good numbers with the former having a great, almost monotone vocal rant and sinister bass riff.
'Slaghag' is a venomous foul-mouthed affair that trespasses on the comedic but thankfully has far too many worthy credentials to be cast as such. It skips and stutters well and adds a new facet to the Bacchus CV.
The best is saved until last with the reeling 'Fuck Off' a true delight that is uplifting, merry and undoubtedly a piss-heads party preference. A great way to end a fine CD from a band worth further investigation.
The ability shown here will be tested on the next release and with care and trepidation should the recording studio be approached. This is a quality offering to start with so I would advise a quick mooch on the internet and check out this solid band.
