From the brilliant Barcode Generation to Hotline to Hades the Drongos are no longer playing the best Punk Rock in the UK but clearly setting the standard for Punk to come. Intelligent Exhilirating.Honest. Quite simply- Brilliant." Kerrang! Radio] If, like myself, you've been following the punk/hardcore scene pretty devoutly since 1980, it goes without saying that there's a damn good chance you'll end up forgetting or missing a band here and there. And I'm not sure how it happened, but somehow, somewhere along the way yours truly missed out on the UK's Drongos For Europe. Originally formed in 1979, the Birmingham punk band released a number of singles before splitting in 1985. 1987 saw Drongos For Europe back together, with the years following seeing the band through a long period of inactivity, only to come back to life once again: refreshed and stronger than ever.Unlike most bands that have been around for the better part of a little over two decades, Drongos For Europe hasn't wimped out, nor has the band stagnated, playing music that's merely going-through-the-motions or tragically stuck in the past. Having honed their craft, rather than selling out, it is without any doubt that these crusty, old punk bastards can definitely teach the new kids a trick or two.The band lays down 14 tracks of catchy-as-fuck, anthemic punk that's filled with melody and backed by production that packs a serious punch. Guitars on the disc are particularly tasty thick, chunky, and full of crunch. From start to finish, Barcode Generation is played with the kind of spirit, energy, and enthusiasm you'd expect to hear from some young kids eager to make their mark.So, yeah, while I may have missed out on Drongos For Europe the first time around, make sure you don't let this band pass you by now.Puke N Vomit Records: PO Box 3435/ Fullerton, CA/ 92834/ USA.Eric Flexyourhead.2004-11-14Review on UK PUNK and OI website DRONGOS FOR EUROPE - Dance When Maggie’s Dead (own release) New 4 track single by Birmingham’s most wanted you can read that how you like. Excellent band over the years and still stirring enough shit to keep people interested and stirring enough shit to raise a few eyebrows to say the least. Uncompromising as ever true to there word, no bullshit, just pure none conforming punk. Over the years having upset a few this bands can still deliver and still travel the good old punk rock road. This single is just whets needed attacking the old enemies of yester year and none of us should ever forget this, never. On blue vinyl it’s pleasing to the eye and appealing to the listener. Hard edged riffs which is a trend for Drongos, hard edge political lyrics with punk ethics. This is not just about yesterday but is relevant today with world wide problems just around the corner. For me it’s an excellent single just as it should be, fast aggressive and true, the vocals are clear and to the point, and backed up by some fast guitar work, aggressive riffs with that punk rock feel only few have witnessed. On a whole its great stuff and will not disappoint to all Drongos fans. 5 out of 5 Review by Andy =" TwistedSiblings.com - Twisted MySpace layouts & stickers! Get your own damn clock!
