WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT US:
“Wales’ Dirty Revolution are already getting tons of dates all around the UK, and off the back of this EP of punk rock mixed with rootsy reggae and ska, they'll get more. Reb and Stu share vocals duties, singing about peace, unity, injustice and racism. The lyrics are honest and true to life, highlighted on "50p", and this is the band's charm. They are already coming up with some real corkers live and the next release can't come soon enough. Being taken under the wing of UK ska heavyweights such as The King Blues and Sonic Boom Six can't hurt either.”
4/5
Big Cheeze Magazine
“Social commentary through this sweetly female fronted Welsh band, with elements of roots, ska & reggae. This EP is a nice appetiser for undoubtedly good things to come, as their ironic lyrics & anti-establishment rhetoric takes front stage with a little gem of a release.”
Distorted Magazine
“I was taken aback when I first encountered Dirty Revolution in the dark grotty stick-floor depths of TJ's in Newport. They sounded so different from the other bands... no screaming vocals, no cover versions... and their sound - Reggae Ska Punk! I'd only ever heard this when I saw The King Blues once in Sketty (Swansea) or when I put on my favourite Clash and Rancid records.
The thing that stands out about this band is their originality. Reb's signature vocals teamed with the uniquely rich, upbeat bouncy sound of Dirty Revolution make this band one to watch out for.
They have already been aired on the BBC's punk show 'The Lockup', which showcases only the best in international punk, reggae and ska. This year have also seen this band play festivals such as renowned 'Strummercamp' in Manchester, 'Workhouse' festival here in Wales and legendary punk rock festival 'Rebellion' in Blackpool as well as countless gigs up and down Britain”

"Excellent stuff....laughed my head off at '50 cent'.....great song and brilliantly delivered......'dirty' is a call to arms that is badly needed these days....you all deserve a lot of luck and success...original ska that's got something to say and not just a lot of fat, boozed up geezers, past their sell buy date, going through the motions!!!
best wishes

"I love, love, LOVE that song (50p) and listen to it everyday"
Hows it going, yeh hope alls good your way n all. Think we're heading towards wales in Jan so we might take you up on the offer of gig help. Cheers, speak soon. Paulx
I think Hacksaw (not entirely sure, never seen them myself) was the tshirt band. My mate is Mike Porter (www.myspace.com/mikeportercollective) and he is very funny but really annoying when you lose him in a bus station in the middle of the night! Was great to see you lot, can't wait for Wednesday; expect a drunken, skanking, lary version of the nice polite person you met on Friday :) Bonza. Jxx
Bob Avakian, "Imagina una nueva sociedad," corto de Revolución, una charla filmada
Bob Avakian ha desarrollado la teoría científica y la orientación estratégica de cómo hacer concretamente la clase de revolución que necesitamos y está dirigiendo nuestro Partido como una fuerza avanzada de esta revolución. Él es un gran paladín y un gran recurso para la gente en este país y, de hecho, la gente en todo el mundo. Debido a Bob Avakian y a la dirección que está dando, es mucho mayor la posibilidad de la revolución aquí en este mismo país y del avance de la revolución en todo el mundo.
