Kerrang review of Rebel Yell at Water Rats London, 28.01.08. KKKK. 'IN THE MIDNIGHT HOUR, THEY CRIED MORE! MORE! MORE!' Punk rock, done properly, is a fabulous thing; it's a shame too few bands understand. Rebel Yell, from Leeds, get it. Quiffs, tatts, fistfuls of punk rock attitude and a clutch of red-hot, white-knuckle rock'n'roll anthems... what's not to like! At the front of the stage James Dean-lookalike Ray McGown attacks his stand-up double bass like a boxer, fists steaming in from every angle; at the rear his brother Craig stands behind a scaled-down kit that would fit into Neil Peart's bass drum, sweating like a god, hammering out rhythms that rattle along like the 3:10 to Yuma. This is raw, restless music wired into rock'n'roll's DNA - Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis - and filtered through the 'fuck you, fuck everyone' energy of The Clash at their hungriest. And it's breathless, deathless stuff. Songs like Lost A Blue, Bang Bang I'm Famous, and Glasses Knives and Bottles strut with last-gang-in-town cockiness, all terrace chant aggression and simmering sexual tension, perfectly capturing the fight-or-fuck edginess of a small town Saturday night. Stupidly, Rebel Yell are still unsigned: go see 'em while their raucous rock'n'roll rumble is this pure and perfect. (Review by Paul Brannigan)

Steroid Freak Pussy [CD Available online!!!]	Nov 18 2008 7:38 AM Yeah well i went for a fish supper wuth Batista [Dave to his mates] after the show to cheer him up after his defeat at the hands of Jericho, and he said he's scared of you anyway, something about you looking like Honky Tonk Man he said? Gives him the creeps he said? Thinks you will shake rattle and roll him you see. Daves a bit sensative you see.

Plus trying to get gainful employment; I've got some temp work next week, counting aircraft components near East Midlands Airport-- only four days though. I'll be high up in rivets. Other than that, I'm residingly museless and had nowt to say. R Jane has been Loose Women a lot recently, finished touring for the time being. The Best of Loose Women is out on DVD, stocking filling for the ladies your life... News just in: Wossy and Brand have been put on the Sachs offenders register...
