Brighton ska and reggae crew who headlined the dome's first live event after lockdown and have since turned up at boomtown, victorious and rebellion. Hard steppers, dub and trad ska rhythms shoved through punk guitars, with lyrics that go straight at social and political subjects. Recent releases include the reworks and in control eps.

King's lynn ska punk lifers who have recorded a live session at maida vale, picked up radio 1 punk show airplay and toured as far as russia, canada and japan. Brass-heavy and fast, with shouted lyrics about power, war, ptsd and economic inequality. Their album the road to sedition came out on tns records in 2023.
