Haranguing The Strange Boys

At a rather reserved but good gig nonetheless at the Arts Centre, it couldn't be helped to present the group with a souvenir of their time in England. Halfway through the guitarist noticed the thing and the dialogue went something like this...

Singer: Ryan would like to say thanks for the 7'' inch

Ryan smiles and looks nonplussed

Sax-Player (looking over): Whats that? The Violence at High Noon? They any good?

Crowd: Passable!

Strange Boys: .....OK then.

Records On Sale In Rough Trade

It's an exciting thing to have to fruits of your labour loins taken in by a establishment so tastefully excellent as Rough Trade, they even (without any coercion on our part) gave us the following glowing review:

a nefarious stew of bizarro, organ drenched surf garage, the violence at high noon's debut single is fuelled by frenetic energy. whilst there's plenty of youthful bile and enthusiasm here, there's also a keen sense of the weird and the canon - the track opens with the best freaked out hammond intro we've heard in an age, then stomps on from there. a great opening gambit.

Don't believe us? then have a look for yerself HERE

An Endorsement From Mick Jones?

Mick Jones of 'Strummer/Jones' Clash fame recently came up to Norwich to visit an exhibition that the art college had curated of various bits of his personal property - including a rather good record collection and a lovely telecaster from London Calling days. We managed to get a record into his hand and a promise that he'd give it a spin...

Perhaps not the most official endorsement... but then it depends on how you chose to look at things.
