Their latest mini-album, Noise Police, delivers 80's-styled punk rock and metal-fuelled breakdowns in a suitably raw and uncompromising manner.

They've got it all down to a fine art as well, breathless raw vocals, paced beats and the feel of something a little heavier that lifts them above their rivals.

The oi-driven title track seems a pure punk three-chord wonder, but with a heavy breakdown of vocals and dirty solos.

Scutty Neighbours is surely the dirtiest punk anthem to walk the streets of Bakewell, while Thunder and Lightning delivers a sledgehammer pound.

Disease Ridden Corpse would keep anyone away from the cemetery, the way the Scutty Neighbours screech about it, and Cleaveland adds more driven guitars.

The EP closes with the slower deliberate kick in the teeth that is Dirty Apples, with every gritted word pushed through sore vocal chords.

Maybe a few more tempo changes, maybe an added solo…there's just something missing that niggles at you while you're listening, but either way this band can tell the difference between something mediocre and something great.

Scutty by name, scutty by nature, this is one band that might just clean up...
