KICKER: Broke: 7”

Sep 23, 2011

Members of Dystopia, Neurosis, and Filth go in a different direction from their humble home and go into a time warp back to the U.K. in the early ‘80s. They take along with them for the ride a long-time punk figure, Pete the Roadie, to handle the vocal duties with great effect. He reminds me a bit of Ronnie Biggs singing with Die Toten Hosen on their punk covers record. Good olde fashioned punk tunes that have that cheery street punk sound that has images of being played in a pub with a fair amount of pints being consumed. The title track is one I can relate to. Getting older is not easy and I seem to be breaking down physically, just like the character in the song describes. To close things off, included is an interesting twist with a cover of SOA.
