14/7/2023 Seeds of 77 + Queenie and the Peanuts + Electrics @ The Hope & Anchor

And Friday night is 'The New Saturday night. So I find myself at the Hope & Anchor - which is a good place to be on a Friday night. Especially when 🗲Electrics🗲 are playing!

This lot can always liven things up with their 'jagged rock 'n' roll'© 😉

They are a West London band with a punk edge and snotty attitude.

Although they are from London there is a definite New York influence - particularly Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers.

Along with the snotty attitude there are some memorable tunes.

There is a certain commitment to their performance - they are doing this because they love it, not because of any interest in 'making it'.

Some interesting and less than radio friendly song titles from 🗲Electrics🗲.

Next up are Queenie and the Peanuts.

1970's style UK punk rock.

Then it's something darker and sleazier from Seeds of 77.

A more exotic feel and a bit of a New York vibe from this lot.

Like the other bands tonight Seeds of 77 have a punk feel without the obvious in your face cliches of the studded leather jackets and Mohican brigade.

An interesting and varied night at a venue with a strong connection to punk rock history.
