The press release promises a classic Buccocks pop punk tune written by Pete Shelley and Danny Farrant, and a taste of what to expect from their new album ‘The Way’ due in November.
Sure enough, big, driving guitars drive a sneering chorus that’s as punk as 1977. You don’t knock a band like The Buzzcocks for not progressing: they’re the original vintage and the true progenitors of pop punk. The formula’s simple and magnificently effective, the hooks snagging deep on the first listen.
