About Me

The Articles debut single
"Monochrome Vigilante / Smacked and Abandoned"
is out now - on limited edition 7" vinyl and as a digital download from the website. Click the banner above for a list of stockists.
From Soundsxp:
"This gem of a single proffers 60s garage riffs mixed with gorgeous shimmering keys (Monochrome Vigilante) and quirky shuffling ska (Smacked and Abandoned) ... they call their music "psychedisco punk", I call it bloody good fun. Well worth checking out "p From Unpeeled magazine:
"Listening to this is like dancing on hot spikes, you have to move. Call it ska if you like, but that piano is music hall, that guitar is class and that rhythm section works more overtime than George Best's barman. One to buy and play."
