Thanks to our German music correspondent Peter for this one... Cyanide Pills in Essen.... he's very smitten with them! A Leeds band, I admit that they are new to me although I have seen the name around, but I like their sound. It's no insult coming from me when I say that they are old school punk. Listening through this high energy gig (their last date of a short German tour) I can here elements of The Lurkers, The Vibrators and the UK Subs amongst others... the song 'Apathy' brought The Adicts immediately to mind. Ramones are in there of course ('The Kids Can't Be Trusted With Rock 'N' Roll'). So this is a great capture of tuneful, good fun punk from 'God's own country'. (Band photo in Essen: David Devant).
As an aside, a Google search for 'Cyanide Pills' throws up a lot of support links in the first instance... a positive thing I guess. On a lighter note than suicide, this reminded me of a friend who studied for a PhD in polymer degradation pathways and mechanisms. 'Adrian,' she said to me one day, try an internet search for 'PVC degradation' and see what you get!'
I digress, enjoy Cyanide Pills!
