About Me


VIDEO FOR ’UNDER GREY ENGLISH SKIES’


i
************************************************************ *
"The Social, with their uber-baritone singer and squalid pop that reeks of bedsits, overflowing ashtrays and Morrissey’s stained Y-fronts have got the whole fetid charm thing down pat. Delightful"
Leonie Cooper
The Guardian
"The demon spawn of Morrissey, Ian Curtis, and London’s town crier circa 1883. More please."
Artrocker
’Interpol fronted by Guy McKnight’
The Fly ’Ones to Watch’ Feb 2007
I honestly can’t stop singing “I will bring the fight to you”, from “Under Grey English Skies” over and over again
It’s 80’s jangly guitar pop, it’s Gothic, it’s baroque, it’s wonderful and uplifting.
Get hold of this when it’s released on the 23rd of April, it’s worth it.
I’d love to take them back in time so I could be the richest man in Old London Town, I don’t think I could be any happier with my merry band, my pocket full of farthings and a syphilis carrying, corset wearing, buxom hag by my side.

’The Social are a bollock-rocking brilliance’
Artrocker Magazine
’London’s answer to the New York punk revival, with the dirty, quirky influence of The Clash and a barrel-load of attitude to boot.’

Sounds Like: The shrubbery around your lawn
is a front to your secret war,
waged in the neat living rooms
of the cold prosaic suburbs.
Bastion of middle England,
bastard child of Thatcherism,
I cannot forgive you for what youve said
and what youve done to us.
There is a light i follow......
The love you give is too reserved,
you traded in your youth and verve,
to build a mighty empire of cake trolleys
and gravelled driveways.
But before you build Jerusalem,
before you take your final breath,
the pictures on your mantle piece
will turn to dust and brick a brack.
There is a light I follow...
And I plot to bring you down,
I plot to bring you down,
I plot to bring you down,
I plot to bring you down,
I plot to bring you down...
