30 years after their million-selling number one, ‘Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick', with the late, inimitable Ian Dury, The Blockheads release their new album, ‘Starring Down The Barrel'.
Featuring 10 new songs, pondering and exploring prescient themes of our time, including: financial collapse and selfishness (‘Roll Over', ‘Greed' and ‘Dirty Money'), the state of the environment (‘Prophet Of Doom' and ‘Elegant Style'), those that fall out of society (‘George The Human Pigeon'), and urban decay (‘No Go Central'); with a raggle-taggle collection of Machiavellian villains, vagrants, desperadoes, eccentrics and other outsiders and deceivers. These sobering issues are shot through with humour and juxtaposed by The Blockheads' unique brew of rock ‘n' roll, jazz, music hall, soul, funk and tight grooves, fomenting an album for the feet as well as the head.
