The Pleasure Dome (https://www.facebook.com/thepleasxuredome) are from Bristol, they've been together since 2019 and they feature a line up of Bobby Spender (Guitar/Vocals), Loz Fancourt (Bass), Harrison Newman (Guitar) & and Bert Elvin (Drums). They've been drip feed releasing a number of tracks online, one of which (Do You Know Better) featured in the Just Some Punk Songs Top 100 songs of 2021. Now they're back with a debut 4 track ep.
It's called Chaos Chaos Revolution and after listening to it I think it's fair to say that it confirms that Idles aren't the only rock band from Bristol worth your time. They're a band that will appeal to grizzled old punks like myself and to the new kids on the block. On this ep they discuss "the political landscape, overcoming mental health issues and austerity hit small towns."
So I'd already heard and loved Do You Know Better, now I'm happy to say that the rest of the ep lives up to that high standard. All the tracks are quite lengthy which gives them room to breath but happily the energy levels never flag. You can get the ep on a couple of limited edition cassettes or as a digital download : https://thepleasuredome.bandcamp.com/album/chaos-chaos-revolution
This is the title track, it's called Chaos Chaos Revolution...
Teenage girls got to make the right decision
Teenage boys got to make the right decision
Take a razor blade to the blister and you keep on walking
The world is a frightening place to play
Chaos chaos revolution
(Take it)
Teenage girls got to stand by their decision
Teenage boys got to stand by their decision
Don’t take a knife to a gun fight
You've got to keep on walking
The world is a violent place to play today
Chaos chaos revolution
(Take it)
Teenage girls got to fight for their decision
Teenage boys got to fight for their decision
Raise a fist against injustice
Because on the march you keep on walking
The world is a frightening place but it’s yours to take today ok
Chaos chaos revolution
(Take it)
Teenage girls helping teenage boys and Teenage boys helping teenage girls and Teenage girls helping teenage boys and Teenage boys helping teenage girls
