Wake Up the Town....


Watching the Lennon Naked excellent drama documentary last night on BBC 4 got me thinking what the hell has happened to Tonbridge's own resident fab five, Bareface. Tonbridge Blog hasn't heard a peep out of them since July, before that they'd spend a month or so shaking the walls and jangling the souls of the neighbourhood as they practiced their blend of post punky, urban inde-rock-with-shades of-the-Beatles White Album in a disused old office building. They're obviously either off gigging at various rock festivals up and down the nation, or else they're taking a break writing their new album on some far flung beach resort. Come back boys it's been very quiet in sleepy old Bank Street!... (By the way you can have the suggestion for the title of your album from me for free. Anyway I nicked it from Paul Weller's excellent latest album Wake up the Nation!)

Yep back with avengeance and doesn't sound like they have been off writing new material - still the same old screeching and beats.. although I'm sure I heard a bit of Hawaii 5 o theme music in there....
