The Best Indie Songs of 2015 - Palma Violets


One of the best indie songs of 2015 is Palma Violet’s Danger In The Club (Feb’15). Any song you can imagine becoming an English football chant has frightening potential. And this chorus shout-along “ …for you a… you… a…” has Seven Nation Army size boots.

This song reminds me of some old punk band like the Strangler’s, although Palma Violets have said they listened to a lot of pre-punk before making the record and others have compared the new album to the Sex Pistols.


“Weight in my voice, such a man
Change the sound of a distant screaming”

 




Danger In The Club is the title track from Palma Violets' second record of the same name (May’15).
Palma Violets are an English indie rock band from Lambeth, London. The lads have been leading the sing alongs for five years now.

Shit you didn’t need to know:

Palma Violets have been called punks and have mentioned a fondness for The Clash, Nick Cave and The Gun Club.

Palma Violets have described themselves as a ‘moment’ band and capturing their yoofullness’.


Palma Violets have said they liked touring the States because it was sunny and there was more free beer.

Jeez they are not ugly are they. Bastards.

Do you have a need for more of the Palma Violets? You can't go past Best Of Friends, you really can't.





Harrison. What a sterling fucking picture of these four hard fucking chargers. Not a looker among them. Real men. Men's men. Barber dodgers.
 
 

 
Silly slappers goes to Harrison and Dear Constable (2007).

Dear Constable is a standout Joe Strummer-esque track from these English indie rockers, four horsemen who rode out of Sheffield, England. Stout.

Dear Constable is a raucous piece of rebellion and if St Joe were still alive I am sure he would approve.


“I can see the lies, dancing in your eyes,
you’re not an honest man…”
