So on last night's Just Some Punk Songs show the roof was blown off the chatroom by a song called Whites Of Your Eyes. It's one of the highlights on Losing Streak, the 10th studio album by County Durham street punks Gimp Fist (https://www.facebook.com/gimpfist).
I've long thought they're easily one of the best bands out there that make this kind of music and their latest release just reinforces that opinion. 15 tracks of catchy as fuck working class anthems (you'd expect nothing less from these guys). No Bandcamp link but you can check it out on Spotify or Youtube
It's an album with it's fair share of politically themed songs where the band stand up to the charlatans in power ("Who's gonna help to get this country right on track?"), ("Hey politicians, you devils in disguise, we won't stop until we see the whites in your eyes"), ("This is our scene and we're taking it back. The sound of the streets for white and for black").
CD and vinyl are available from Sunny Bastards :
They've released a few videos to coincide with the album so today I'll highlight one of those. This is Screaming...
