Punk Rockers : The Best of Vice Squad Volume 1/Purple Vinyl

Description

Vice Squad, 100% DIY, recorded everything in their home studio with Paul Rooney producing. Their new album is precise, powerful, and full of dark humor. Tracks like “If I Knew What I Know Now” or “The World Is Wrong” show their talent for catchy, committed songs, while darker ones reveal massive riffs and Beki’s intense voice. Classic tracks are revisited (“Resurrection”, “Last Rockers”) with a heavier sound, alongside hard-hitting songs about pollution (“Allergy”), censorship (“Voice of the People”), and the cynicism of the punk scene (“Punk Police”). Tracks like “Humane” (about animal rights), “Spitfire” or “Born In A War” bear witness to an unchanged commitment and energy that is still as fierce as ever. Beki expresses her vision of punk as the ultimate cry of revolt, a visceral passion that runs through the whole album.
