FC20 + Band in London, EN

SEEKING

ABOUT

FC-20 (an instrument for alcohol screening,amongst other things) all hail from Camden. Bringing a swagbag choc full of uniquely mixed and mashed up electro rock, ska, rap,FC20 offer twisted music for a twisted world. They are: A Prid (rhymes & verbals), Simon Webb (vocals & speech), Scott Stewart (beats & rhythms),Georgie Dean (bass & grooves) and Logan Coutts (guitar).Heavily redolent of legendary streetwise London outfits The Blockheads, Clash, Madness & The Streets,they also bear a passing resemblance to 90's rave-rock groovers,Happy Mondays. The vibe is not disimilar-bags of attitude,natty lines,choppy guitars,wah-wah pedals,woozy keys and spacey beats.Having already supported fellow London bucks, The Rifles,at various gigs including The Roundhouse,it's perhaps no surprise to hear they too are determinedly counter to the daily drudge and grind of the nine to five rat-trap.They do things at their own pace and in their own sweet way. Most impressive are the tracks Regents Park,Karnivore,Mysteps and The Weekend.Simon Webb does indeed sound like an argument between Strummer and Skinner.But the joy is in hearing the interplay between his half spoken diatribes and the rollicking counterweight of A Prid who toasts it all along from the sidelines.Dubby, dirty and lowdown, tales of wasted days and big nights out with dodgy characters are amusing as they are bracing. Are you feeling a little bit partial?.
