US punkers Swingin’ Utters have confirmed a lengthy run of live dates across the US and Europe for the summer. All scheduled dates can be seen below.
The band’s 2013 release ‘Poorly Formed’ was well received by most of the rock press. To read Real Gone’s review of the album, click here.
They may have only released one full-length album in their original incarnation, but UK Decay influenced a generation of musicians, and along with Southern Death Cult and Siouxsie and the Banshees are considered by some to be the fore fathers of the goth movement. A quarter century on from their last studio recording, the core of the original band reunited for a one off gig and the response was so overwhelming, they soon found themselves making regular live appearances. A new album was, perhaps, something few expected considering the band’s previous output was so scant but the band returned to the studio in late 2012.
As previously announced, Rancid are playing a run of live dates in the US this coming June. They’ve now announced extra shows, as detailed below.
Punk veterans NOFX have confirmed appearances at various European festivals, as detailed below.
The appearances do not include a trip to the UK this time around. The band’s last trip to the UK is documented in a review of their second London show, which you can read here.
The shows are part of the ongoing promotion for their 2012 release ‘Self-Entitled’.
Frantzeska is a three piece punk/alternative rock band from Bilbao, Spain. ‘BesauriOn!’ is their second release and although it may be half the length of their prior record, stylistically, they branch out twice as far. In just five numbers and with the help of four friends, they show off a multitude of styles and influences, from pure punk, to ska/reggae, funk, with touches of pop and even lounge jazz.
