Audio Bullys


25 Mar

AUDIO BULLYS have returned with their vogue of the ever increasing in populartity, electro-punk. Are they still managing to produce some bombing tunes?

With the release of their single Only Man with remixes left, right and centre from all of the colours of the dance music spectrum we do in did, have an absolutely brilliant record.

Plenty of vocals are cascaded across the head-nodding beats kindred to Mike Skinner of The Streets which of course, to us Brits, is not a bad thing whatsoever. Dynamite and London Dreamer reflect that.

The album lifts up on Feel Alright with some passive-aggressive bassline strokes, haunting synth riffs and the slurring vocals have a unique honesty as if – when singing the track he is in fact – not alright. I’d say this to be my favourite for sure due to the moody nature of it. Definitely very me.

All the songs have a classic ska aura surrounding them which I envisage being a great travelling album when heading off to many a festival over the coming summer with everyone crammed into the motor singing along to Twist Me Up.

More Than the Eiffel has such intricate production work I feel breathless thinking about the hours of work that has gone tirelessly into the creation of it.

I could go in-depth and tell you what I think of every track but then this would be a long album review being as the LP consists of a very healthy 15 tracks with one remix of Only Man included by Rok.

It’s full of possibilities for various remixers to have a fiddle as every track, yes, every track has great foundations of absolute belters. Most of the originals are excellently done but Drums (On With The Story) the only exception. That should’ve been ditched. Other than that, exceptional work.

Album is out!

No matter what mood you are you’ll always be smiling after the few few bars of ANY record by Dreadzone.
