Angelic Upstarts - Solidarity

Pretty Shitty & Kjell Hell organize once again a festival here in Stockholm, two days on Fryshuset Klubben. Following the success of Cock Sparrer gig in spring 2010, so has Kjell Hell and Pretty Shitty Town joined forces, strange it would be otherwise after the commitment, happiness and total satisfaction as shown in connection with last gig out of both visitor, bands and staff. One thing is clear after that, Sweden has a punk scene and you are part of it! So for this year the festival expanded to two days and in a flash i got sold out, so unfortunately no more tickets available. That I will spend two days at this festival will be extremely interesting, actually looks forward to seeing Angelic Upstarts play tomorrow and they are involved in todays Tune Of The Day.

Angelic Upstarts are an English punk rock/Oi! band formed in South Shields in 1977. The band espoused an anti-fascist and socialist working class philosophy, and have been associated with the skinhead subculture. More than two decades after its release, their debut single, "The Murder Of Liddle Towers", was included in Mojo magazine’s list of the best punk rock singles of all time.

The original line up consisted of Mensi - Thomas Mensforth (vocals), Mond (Ray Cowie) (guitar), Steve Forsten (bass) and Decca Wade (drums).

Todays tune ”Solidarity” is a single from 1983, todays clip is the original version of the tune and the Spotify link is taken from the album ”Live From The Justice”. Enjoy!
