Hypnotised by The Undertones

“The Troubles” was an epic understatement for a time of unemployment, random terrorism and military occupation. The Undertones stuck two fingers up at all of that and got on with writing more songs about chocolate and girls. Following up the best song about teenage angst ever written was always going to be a tall order but they come pretty close with the fifteen tracks on offer here. 

Heartfelt, funny, angry razor sharp lyrics combined with tight guitars and drums playing perfect punk. Completely relatable for anyone who was a spotty teenager worrying about their life. 

Subbuteo-tastic!
