Suburban Legends Rump Shaker
Kerrang! Magazine Review
'Crackin' smiles even when we're sad, that's just the way it goes in a ska band', warbles Suburban Legends vocalist Tim Maurer on tongue-in-cheek paean to perky martydorm 'Do It For The Kids'. Go tell that to The Specials, then. Or Capdown. Or Voodoo Glow Skulls. Ska-punk doesn't have to be frothy lightweight fun, but that's the route the Legends take and for what it's worth they do it as well as most. There's nothing particularly original here but the frantic rhythms, parping horns and choppy guitars are all firmly in place and if you want an album to remind you of what summer was like this could well be it.
