Tagnuts - Gimpin'

I remember when System of a Down really blew up, and I didn't like them. I respected the fact they were doing something different to a lot of the scene at the time, with the original vocal style and all but it just didn't speak to me. The Tagnuts are doing something different in a similar way, but they really do speak to me, the CD is outstanding not just meaning good.

The blend of funky ska-influenced verses with hard-as-nails shout along terrace choruses are a sure fire winner for a few bands, but the Tagnuts manage to use these elements in a style that is uniquely their own. Lyrically a long way ahead of a lot of their contemporaries, Gimpin' contains punk standards of heartbreak, change, drugs, booze and tasty social commentary all handled expertly without sounding at all clichéd.

Songs written to be not so much catchy as downright addictive include the observant Think About It, and don't we all know a girl or two like this? The de-ja-vu feeling continues on Ketaminge and Cider Shits, dealing with the somewhat less glamourous aspects of having a good chemical influenced time. Chavtastic worried me at first because it's so easy to treat the subject ignorantly, but this track not only treats it with thoughtful good humour, it's funky and tough and makes for the best track on the CD.

Gimpin' contains what is becoming a lost art, a decent fucking ear for a tune. Not necessarily always complex melodies and the album's sound is uniform, but the tunes themselves all stand out as well-written and great fun. Well worth the (Extremely low!) asking price, Gimpin' sits nicely alongside The Ruts in my collection, and should in yours too.

LAST GANG IN TOWN STRUMMERVILLE BENEFIT & LAST GANG’S 6th BIRTHDAY GIG

THE YALLA YALLAS are a fantastic punk rock ‘n’ roll band from Leeds. Their name was chosen as a rallying call to unify. “So long liberty, lets forget you didn’t show. Not in my time” a sentiment expressed on an early Joe Strummer recording & one which struck a chord with the band and their audience. Some members have appeared in The Dead Pets, 3milehigh & The Gushers & they now share a common goal to bring anthemic mayhem to wherever they play.

THE TAGNUTS Cambridge “Gimp-Core” ska punkers are back! After almost a year away The Tagnuts are ready to do it again. This is the hometown night of a UK tour that sees them playing across the country.http://www.myspace.com/thetagnuts

THE TEN-O-SEVENS These four lads combine elements of early punk rock with the sound & attitude of the most obnoxious of garage punk bands. Their songs are fast, loud, snotty & catchy simple chord tight style tunes that will stick to your head like cheap superglue! http://www.myspace.com/krummylanky

THE DEAD BATTERIES They are fast, they have a lot to say, and they say it with venom! Great anarcho punx from Ipswich, don’t miss them!

Ian is currently living in Cambridge, so it's not quite him. Though the Ian mentioned in the profile is certainly Ian of MCipod fame.

LAST GANG IN TOWN presents…

NEW TOWN KINGS - Back by popular demand this 9 piece bring their infectious and energetic brand of 2Tone, ska, reggae and dub back for a triumphant return to the Man on the Moon. Since releasing their debut album “Sound Of The New Town” on Do The Dog records the band have had gig and festival crowds across the UK begging for more. With a new studio recording in the pipeline, the future promises to be bright for the New Town Kings. http://www.myspace.com/newtownkings

RESOLUTION 242 - Their debut CD out on Do the Dog Records has had some great reviews and secured them airplay on Radio One’s “The Lock Up”. Resolution 242 have shared the stage with the likes of Inner Terrestrials and King Blues and played the Rebellion Festival in 2009. They sound great and they’ve got plenty say. They don’t claim to have the answers, but aim to raise awareness about important issues that they think need attention and debate, in the only medium they can… music…so get involved and enjoy! http://www.myspace.com/resolution242

CAPTAIN BLACK NO STARS - This Norfolk reggae collective have come a long way in short time, gaining fans across the region with their unique sound inspired by both the Trojan / 2Tone sounds and UK Punk rock. They bring the early Clash forays into Jamaican music to mind but with a contemporary slant. They kick off proceedings as the first of 3 Do The Dog bands that will have you skanking all night!http://www.myspace.com/captainblacknostars
