Record Review – Thee Spivs 'Black And White Memories'


THEE SPIVS
Black And White Memories
Damaged Goods
London garage punk trio Thee Spivs have always displayed the spirit of ’77 in their sound since appearing on the scene a few years back, and with their second album nothing much has changed. The songs are still two-minute energy spikes, the choruses are still instantly memorable, the powerhouse guitars demanding you jump round the room with abandon.  City life, girlfriends, work, school, boredom, and escapism are all themes for frontman Ben Edge and his effusive self-deprecating humour. If you want original music look elsewhere, but if you want 14 punk nuggets played with Billy Childish-like passion then sign up here.
