Fresh from tearing through crowds in the USA, UK and Europe during two of the biggest (and arguably diverse) support slots going (Bullet For My Valentine, Gogol Bordello), Skindred return to the UK shores to remind fans both new and hardened, why they have been tagged as the '...best live band in the UK' (Kerrang - recent KKKKK live review). The UK Ragga-Punk-Metallers begin their 2008 UK headline run, entitled the 'GUNSHOT MEANS REWIND' Tour this May, to promote their new album 'ROOTS ROCK RIOT', which features the crowd pleasers 'Rat Race', 'Rudeboy For Life' and the new single 'Trouble'. The new record (available on Warner Bros/Bieler Bros) is the follow up to their debut release 'BABYLON' which has reached worldwide sales of over 300,000 and featured the songs 'Pressure' and US chart-topping 'Nobody'. The 2008 'GUNSHOT MEANS REWIND' tour kicks off on the 15th May, and features support from Exeter-based IDIOM (recent supports to From Autumn To Ashes) and other very special guests.

Dead Kennedys

Date:	Thu 22-05-08

Lineup:	» Dead Kennedys
Ticket Price:	£ 16
Doors:	7:30 PM

DEAD KENNEDYS were one of the most popular and important American hardcore punk bands of the late '70s/early '80s. They formed in San Francisco in 1978 when EAST BAY RAY placed an ad in a music paper that vocalist JELLO BIAFRA responded to. They were soon joined by bassist KLAUS FLOURIDE, drummer TED and a second guitarist known to posterity simply as 6025. The latter departed in March 1979, while Ted was replaced at the very end of 1980 by D.H. PELIGRO. After a brief rehearsal period, Dead Kennedys played their first gig at Mabuhay Gardens in July 1978. The "Fab Mab" was a Filipino restaurant in San Francisco's North Beach section that served as a home to punk bands for nearly ten years. It wasn't too long before the band gained a considerable following around San Francisco. Live, DKs were a combination of chaos and theatrics. Their sound could be described as a cross between the Sex Pistols and the Ventures.
