The Dreadnoughts are Vancouver's biggest, baddest, drunkest, punkest celtic band. One part roaring sea shanty, one part haunting Irish melody, and a solid chaser of gut-crunching street punk.
The Dreadnoughts take punk, celtic, and shanty-music seriously. They stay true to the ancient ballads and bawlers that once drove sailors around the world, and they smash out modern street-punk with a fury and intensity that is almost unmatched in their home city. Best of all, they do both at the same time.
Since their humble beginnings in 2006, drinking and playing in the roughest dive bars in the city, the Dreadnoughts have built a large and loyal following in Vancouver. They are often recognized as one of the best live bands in the city. They embrace the old-school destructive chaos of live punk, and they don't stop until the audience is exhausted, sweaty, happy, and usually pissed to the gills.
2009 marks a new era for The Dreadnoughts as joining up with Leech records out of Switzerland and Stomp Records out of Canada will enable extensive touring of Europe and Canada in order to promote the second album "Victory Square" which is to be released in the late spring.
"Legends Never Die" is their first album, but it "possesses all the confidence, muscle, and production of a seasoned outfit in the prime of their career." -www.shitenonions.com
