Well, it’s been a fair year for the site and it’s come quite a way from the forum-based beginnings, having covered the festivals and the Pitz Blitz also helped. That said, I’d be the first to admit that things haven’t been quite consistent due to different reasons/excuses, but thanks to various people helping out (not forgetting Josh) it’s gone a bit smoother than I first anticipated.
Grown up punk? You’re having a laugh aren’t you? Well, no I’m not actually! New bassist, new sound and a lot more developed than before (have no fear though punk lovers, you can still find the old familiar shouting of “oi!” here). Yep, sounds like Near The Knuckle are here again and bless ‘em, they’re all growed up! Right from the start of Fat Cats and Rat Traps you can tell that Near The Knuckle are the sort of band who’d order steak, chips and a pint, then tell the salad to “go forth and multiply” or words to that accord.
