wentywoo Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Out now on Drunken Sailor Records, Leeds finest 'The Magnificent. http://drunkensailorrecords.bigcartel.com/product/the-magnificent-1981-7-300-white-vinyl-drunken-sailor-records Awesome new 7" ltd to 300 on white vinyl The Magnificent are a punk rock trio from the North of England. They sing about stuff that affects their lives. Important things like coal mining, Royal Weddings, the decline of modern civilisation, cutting down trees, playing squash and being in love. Their sound has been compared to Pinhead Gunpowder, The Replacements, Billy Bragg, The Clash, Rancid, Stiff Little Fingers and Social Distortion. The Mags started in 2007 and the current line-up is Matt (guitar, vocals), Jimmy (bass, vocals) and Charlie (drums). Their first LP 'Pay The Crimes' came out on Boss Tuneage in 2009. Since then, they’ve had the pleasure of playing with some of their favourite bands; Leatherface, Hot Water Music, Fest 9, forgetters, D4, The Bomb, Snuff, Chuck Ragan, Noise By Numbers, Bangers to name a few. ‘1981’ comes out on April 29th 2011, the day of the Royal Wedding. The new single was recorded in Chicago with Jeff Dean (from the Bomb) in November 2010. ‘1981’ is a song about how a generation struggles to emulate the feats of their parents, ‘the baby boomers’. Everyone is poor these days and everyone struggles to meet the cost of living. The song is about being born into a world ruled by economics that no-one truly understands or has control of. Also in the store, Tiltwheel 7", Young Leaves LP and Unfun 7" Thanks! https://www.facebook.com/DrunkenSailorRecords Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
