GRUBBY THINGS, with singer Elvan, has been around since 2000. The band is celebrating its fifteenth anniversary this year. To mark this birthday, there will also be a new 7" released.
Until then, you can enjoy the band's LIVE CD.
Yes, it is live!
Yes, it is a kind of best-of!
Yes... it has to be!
GRUBBY THINGS were already a band in their early days that radiated incredible energy on stage. This was mainly due to the charismatic and captivating singer Elvan. Her rough, energetic voice and her stage presence always made the concerts a special experience in the past. They will confirm to anyone who comes to their concerts this year that they are far from tired.
The LIVE CD clearly and unmistakably conveys the band's energy through thirteen songs.
The recording is good, even though the audience is hardly audible. This allows you to focus on the music. The songs are a cross-section of the different creative phases and band lineups. Old songs like “Grubby Things” can be heard alongside newer songs, such as “Pictures”.
The LIVE CD was mastered by Tom (bass) himself. Thus, a vibrant piece of punk rock has emerged that could not have been done better in terms of sound!
GRUBBY THINGS seem to have found the optimum with the current lineup.
Precisely played '77 punk, combined with street punk, rock 'n' roll, and plenty of charisma. The band has always had a knack for melodies. They haven't lost it; rather, they have refined it even more.
Gritty punk rock, dirty, catchy... and damn cool.
GRUBBY THINGS deserve to be heard, seen... and experienced with all senses.
The LIVE CD is available for €7 plus €2 shipping from the band or at concerts.
