The Vermin Suicides

While The Rolling Stones exist the resurgence of a classic rock band will never be something worth writing about. Classic hits performed at 50% energy with new musicians, extra backing vocals, extended guitar solos. You know it, you've seen the likes Meatloaf, Def Leppard and Bon Jovi. They're shite. It's gross. The difference between these and The Vermin Suicides is the songs they perform tonight have never been hits as they've never been released and rarely played live.

This new line up including Sexy Alec on bass and Paul 'PR Racing' Robbo on lead guitar has never been tested. They may all look like cover band crooners suited to whining away in a local boozer but on closer inspection here is a band performing their debut album with double the energy and stigma of teenagers.

When upbeat catchy pop punk / classic rock is performed this good you can't fail to have a good time. It may not be The Rolling Stones but it's better than a Bon Jovi concert.
