Formed in 1989 from the ashes of The Untouchables, this London three piece sought a return to the powerful guitar based rock'n'roll that inspired them to first pick up their instruments in the late seventies. Influenced by The Jam, The Ruts, Ramones and of course the Pistols the Guitar Gangsters produced a debut album of melodic power punk gems that made "Prohibition" a sort after release. Filled with chunky guitar riffing, snappy beats, and melodic hooks from heaven, exciting, and timeless. Sure, there are no real surprises to be found, but who needs those when you are surrounded by some great songs? "Nothing to Shout About," "That's When the Razor Cuts," and "Radio Shakedown" are brilliant pop songs that will appeal to fans of pop, punk, and mod bands like the Stiffs, the Crack, the Boys, the Chords, and 999. Almost every second of this album will have your fists pumping and your pulse racing. To buy Guitar Gangsters on CD Click Here |
