  It's Friday so that means it's guest review day. This time round you're getting a review by Darren Bourne who's the driving force behind Brighton label Tadpole Records. He's chosen a song by State Funeral so I'll just add a couple of links to his label and leave you in his capable hands....

  State Funeral are a 4 piece Hardcore band from Brighton UK, they are Archie (Vocals, also in Imposter), Charlie (Bass, also in Imposter / Gnarwolves), Idy (Guitar) and Joe (Drums, also in Vile Spirit / Lawful Killing) they have helped create a great live scene down in the south of England along with other local bands like Vile Spirit, Gutter Knife, Never, Imposter and Telekinesis.



They released a 6 track demo which you can download on their Bandcamp which also came out on Boss Tuneage Records as a one sided Flexi Disc https://statefuneraluk.bandcamp.com/releases



  And in 2018 they’ll be releasing a 12” LP on Static Shock Records http://staticshockrecords.limitedrun.com/ & plan to tour Ireland and mainland Europe at some point, if you like bands like Void, Minor Threat, Negative Approach, etc… You should check these guys out & they are a fantastic live band. 

  This Is Age Of Pigs.....

RAISED TO TRUST 
FOREBEARS KNOW BEST 
RESPECT YOUR ELDERS 
EXCEPT THE TARGET ON YOUR CHEST 
ASSUMED THEY HAD WISDOM 
THAT DISPROVED THE YOUTH 
PENSIONS OVER EDUCATION 
WE KNOW THE TRUTH 


AGE OF THE FATTENED PIGS 
STUCK IN THEIR SACCHARINE PAST 
STEERING THEIR DOOMED SHIP 
SIDING WITH UKIP 
WHILST WE’RE TIED TO THE MAST 


RAISED TO TRUST YOU 
KILL OUR FUTURE FOR YOUR OWN 
MAKE US WORK FOR LESS AND LESS 
WE’RE LAZY BECAUSE WE MOAN 
CALL US ENTITLED 
BECAUSE WE WANT THE SAME AS YOU 
TREAT US LIKE SPOILED SHIT 
BECAUSE WE WANT WHAT WE’RE PROMISED TOO 


AGE OF THE FATTENED PIGS 
STUCK IN THEIR SACCHARINE PAST 
STEERING THEIR DOOMED SHIP 
SIDING WITH UKIP 
WHILST WE’RE TIED TO THE MAST 


TIED TO THE MASTERS
