Avast ye swabs! We got a mutiny!

Buccaneering crew Goldblade bring their swashbuckling galleon to the high seas once more for their fifth album, 'Mutiny' calling for revolution and booty! With a piratical glee and a blur of limbs and sweatshod torso they tear up the stage like a gang of mutant pirates armed with a lyrical cutless of searing social commentary, fierce guitars and a sex, style and subversion of a holy fuck of a live show.

These mp3 pirates have a commitment to turn the too polished corporate pop world into a feral celebration of the primetime excitement of punk rock. They demand you sit up and take notice and they cackle as EMI and major dinosaurs collapse into ruins as the digital downloads tear the very fabric of the boring record industry.

‘Rock n roll is a celebration of life a celebration of the holy fuck,’ they shout before plugging in and doing just that.

The Manchester based band raise the skull and crossbones standard once more in a series of typically anthemic songs including June 2008’s top 75 hit ‘Jukebox Generation’

These songs will be tearing mosh pits up worldwide as the band hit the road again for another globe trotting tour which includes the UK, Europe, the USA, Russia and maybe even India and China in in the coming year.

The bands last album, ‘Rebel Songs’ established them as worldwide punk rock force with their ferocious high energy shows which has seen them recognised as the best live band in the UK.

'Mutiny’ features 13 songs from the sing-along call to arms of ‘Riot ‘ inspired by the LAPD tear gassing the 10 000 strong audience at a Californian festival the band were playing and a the riot cops in Moscow who went in mob handed on the massive mosh  pit Goldblade had generated.

The album features to the neo Stooges/MC5 psychedelic punk rock freak out ‘Wake up! Wake up! You’re Already Dead’. There are anthemic songs about death and rock n roll like recent top 75 single ‘Jukebox Generation’ and caustic social commentary of 'Everybody’s On Drugs’.

Get on board and you will be mixing it up with the sharp suited greased up pompadour Blade of  the stomping Sun sessions guitar ‘billy assault of ‘Beyond God And Elvis’ or smashing your house up to the furious rush of ‘Where Have All The Rude Boys Gone’. Goldblade even have the time to go high adrenaline high drama on the Ventures/Shadows shake down of ‘City Of Ghosts’ before finishing the album off with the Banjo driven sea shanty of 'Mutiny’.

Lyrically the album is razor sharp with front man john Robb ‘searing caustic social commentary’ (the Guardian) wordplay which saw him dubbed as ' one if the best lyricists in the UK right now' in the American press.  The music is ever inventive but always cranked guitar excitement that has seen the dub ed ‘future punk’ by some critics.

Asked to represent the UK at Eurovision 2009 in an astonishing dare by the orginisors and recently played on American TY's Strictly Come Dancing the band are on the verge of some sort of mainstream breakthrough.

Meanwhile Robb’s recent best selling book ‘Punk Rock -  An Oral History’ and upcoming acting debut and heavy-duty TV work are all signs of the band’s high profile.

‘Mutiny’ is the band’s best album and a rude and exciting sign of just how vibrant the UK punk rock scene is!
