The Square Peg

Who Are You is an even paced song which gets the foot tapping straight away, it’s your classic you think you know better than me song, “but we know different don’t we boys” and you can hear all the instruments which I personally like, good opener.

your typical Blair/Bush anti songs, (and rightly so) set at a slightly faster pace which gets you the listener ready to put your beer down and get your arse on the floor.

“Some call me the Reaper some call me god”, life or death it don’t matter as there is no getting away from the fact that punk songs like this one will follow you wherever you are.

almost 2 minutes short, this number takes you back to when those who had control of your upbringing felt they let you down, some did no doubt, but another, get on the floor we want some more.

f*** Franz Ferdinand I really would, it’s one of those songs that causes you more grief than you would imagine, it’s a clever number which embeds itself into your mind the more you listen to it and when you are in the presence of the most unexpected

Classic punk rock song and my album fav, nice pacy number that will be on the tip of your tongue for sure. The message here is where I come from it’s a sh*** hole life is sh*** and that’s that, listen to it and enjoy.

remember when everyone around you would tell you that they knew best? This song takes you there and makes you realise that thank god you didn’t listen to those opinions, very good usage of the brass here too.

lest we forget the awful consequences of what happened on that fateful day in Hiroshima. This song gives us a short story into what happened on that god forsaken day, just wish the idiots who run countries would see that light. Great number, though

the only cover on the album and a very good one too, I’m sure the Damned will be delighted, tough if they ain’t

a good paced loyalty number again with the message, “If your gonna stand then stand together,” it’s that simple, driving guitar and drum sound, ah yes

Billy Bragg comes to mind (that’s a compliment) in this being politically corrected punk number and I would of called it Bullsh*** Blues but it’s not my song. Use of the old classical guitar works very well too

those of you who think punk is all about belting every song in your set out ought to listen to this number as it’s a solid rhythmic tune without losing that punk attitude sound, once again if you listen to it enough it will grab your taste

great title for a song and the lyrics are spot on, especially when you look at life through a clouded glass then listen to this number, all is not lost and it has that never say die spirit within.

What a way to end an album with Needles of the Swellbellys giving it bollocks on the backing vox, pacy and punk as it comes number, you won’t need any persuasion to get your hands on this cd it’s that good. Oh! Leave it running to the end
