DESCRIPTION |
| | TOTAL VICTORY English Martyrs Label : Specific Year : 2017 Format : LP Style : Rock Availability : Out of stock
| | | | Description : | Total Victory are a guitar band where the music is sharp and the words are sharper. Those weaned on post-punk will enjoy what they have to offer, and Total Victory have a lot to offer. This, their new album, sees the band hitting creative heights that not only matches but topples the standard bearers.
English Martyrs is Total Victory's version Grotesque by The Fall in that the songs make up a portrait of the country. In contrast to that album, the pulp acid horror is dialled down and replaced by an ever greater sense of social commentary and cutting observational humour. The other obvious comparison is Half Man Half Biscuit, but if England is the Titanic, while Nigel Blackwell's mob are mocking the middle classes and their pretensions, Total Victory are in the crows nest.
