Guy Mortensen 28th Nov 2023		Review I was at this gig, 17 years old, and, as I recall, they did around the same number of encores i.e. 17. The energy was phenomenal. It was the Ramones with a Molotov cocktail. They were in your face, but not for the sake of it, they weren't simply being 'naughty' or confrontational teenagers. They were saying something and their anger was born of frustrations with the social conditions caused by the Troubles. What a band, what an album. 'Wasted life', just one of many gems. There's a lot of guitar pop, not simply punk and poppy punk, in there. Surprised no one has covered 'Barbed Wire Love' or 'Breakout'. 'Alternative Ulster' is also a wonderful song, seminal - though of its time; so it couldn't really be re-worked today. Great band, great gig, an honour to have been there.
