2nd DISTRICT
Emotional Suicide

__________________________________________________

A composite crew of the original District and trash punk’n’rollers The Revolvers this new set of equally ravenous rum-rummaging glory garglers again mix kerbside crunching street punk with the sort of guttural glam that the Backyard Babies’d baulk at sticking up their noses. 2nd District wouldn’t care, whatever the fuck’s up their nose or in their bloodstreams they bring it on, bring it back up and beat it back down again into a bewitching dancefloor, bar-room spinning brawl of beer-battered boogie. Theatrically camp vocals staggering between Rotten, Pete Shelley and Feargal Sharkey at closing time in a bar called ‘Centrifrugal Force’ mixed with limp-wristed loucheness with the latent toughness of a platoon of pissed-up lumberjacks like the Hollywood Brats with balls made from breeze blocks - they kick ass like uncrowned Kahunas reclaiming the Krautrock title for the gutter gaunt guitar slingers swaggering through the swinging parties and stinking stages. ‘Young and Disorderly’ on the strength of a ‘Promising Romance’ - this is another one.
