Cyanide Capsules return with album quantity 4, one other blast of hearts, beliefs, and influences worn clearly on their tight power-punk sleeves.

My first introduction to Leeds-based Cyanide Capsules was in a sweaty Spanish bar, their power-chord-fuelled punk-pop blasts pulling each thread of their musical heroes: The Conflict, The Pistols, The Ramones, The Undertones. You may’t name it revival if it by no means went away. That night time, the music that basically caught with me was the cracking Don’t Flip Proper from their Nonetheless Bored album. Politicking in a easy name to the plenty. Typically there’s no want to decorate up your message below layers of metaphor and also you want a shot that goes straight to the purpose, which is precisely what Cyanide Capsules excel at. Within the ten years since that, their second album, was launched, the UK and far of Europe have headed down that path the band riled towards. And so now, we now have their fourth album: Soundtrack To The New Chilly Warfare. See? Typically you’ve simply obtained to say what you see.

By means of the album, the band have a look round their private, political, and worldwide panorama and throw all their considerations within the pot to fire up a punk-pop racket. Whether or not they’re taking potshots at local weather change deniers on the cracking Dr Feelgood-meets The Hives-like Operating Out Of Time, calling out the greed and lies of the ruling elite over the grooving pub-rock blues drive of Gained’t Be Lengthy, or turning their eye and spite on the Punk Rock Police on The Youngsters Can’t Be Trusted With Rock ‘n’ Roll, the band have zero qualms in letting you recognize precisely what’s on their minds.

That they select to open their new album with The Youngsters Can’t Be Trusted… is a stroke of poke ’em within the eye genius as they decry the gatekeepers of their very own scene who purchase posters for £1,000 whereas the following generations stroll on their so-called hallowed floor. “They prefer to suppose they personal the previous,” the band sing, earlier than retorting “We’ll steal your Beatles and maintain ripping off The Conflict.” Hurl a plastic punk jibe and the band will bat it proper again with a wink of a watch…and, on their single model, throw in an ideal cowl model of The Youngsters’ Do You Wanna Know as well.

After they steer their focus away from such matters, we get the fantastic powerpop gem of Day After Day, pure Raspberries meets Ramones, and the album nearer, It’s Over, a shuffling doo-wop brush portray a gloss over their harmonies and licks. Early on we additionally get the twistingly riotous Low Funds Rock ‘n’ Roll to interrupt from social and worldwide armageddon warnings.

On Soundtrack To The New Chilly Warfare, Cyanide Capsules flick the Vs on the gatekeepers, pull no punches and maintain the Ramones-core punk-o-rama practice rolling. No frills, no hidden meanings, simply brief, sharp blasts of a basic punk rock sound with their messages entrance and centre.

Cyanide Capsules are on Fb and Twitter.
