Slagerij
- are a 3 piece ska-punk band from Swindon
they formed back in late 2007 and since
then have had an exciting journey releasing
various different EP’s as well as
two self-recorded and self-produced albums,
the band have toured across the UK many
times over and have also visited America
for a brief tour.
Recently Slagerij
have been on the road supporting 4FT Fingers
who were back on the scene for a handful
of shows back in March and this was where
we first saw Slagerij on the live circuit
and were totally blown away with their
energetic shows in both Bristol and Swindon
where the crowd fully got into it and
opened up mosh pits at nearly every opportunity
whilst a few people chose to take things
further with a bit of crowd surfing as
Slagerij unleashed their ska-punk.
The likes of ‘Set
It Off’, ‘Girls Got Rhythm’,
‘... Now For The Weather’
and ‘Can’t Stop A Nation’
have been fan favourites for years and
it is so easy to see why as no two Slagerij
songs are the same as one minute they
go down the ska route sounding like the
bastard love childs of Whitmore meets
Less Than Jake and then the next they
go down the more in your face punk rock
route sounding like 4Ft Fingers mixed
with a legion of Oi punk bands.
Slagerij have just
released their new single ‘Non Stop
Party Machine’ which shows that
after not releasing any new material for
a couple of years they still have the
knack at writing big in your face catchy
songs that are going to get you dancing
in your bedroom and causing carnage in
your local venue when Slagerji next come
to town.
Over the next couple
of months Slagerij have a hectic touring
schedule as they tour the likes of Bath,
Swindon, Birmingham, Torquay, Cheltenham,
Cardiff, Keynsham and also head to Scotland
to play at the long running Wickerman
Festival, and if that was not enough they
have also announced a New Years Eve show
where they will be seeing the New year
in supporting Whitmore who are reforming
for the one off special show.
If you feel
like you want to rewind to the days of
P-rock TV then look no further than www.facebook.com/slagerijuk
as Slagerij are here to have a good time
and make sure everyone else has a goodtime
in the process.
