Randy (of Insurgence and Rebel Time) has recently been spreading the word about a bunch of young upstarts collectively known as The Class War Kids. Having checked out the tracks that Randy's posted on one of his blogs, I know why he's so keen. They're very, very good.

In an email to Randy I described 'em as having "a great street-punk sound with just a hint of melodic hardcore - kinda The Restarts meet early Propagandhi", and he didn't disagree. But that's not really to do 'em the full justice they deserve. TCWK get stuck in on their own terms without any problem whatsoever. I'm just trying to give you a vague reference point to start from.

You've got your reference point, now head to Rebel Time and feel the noise. And keep an eye out for their forthcoming CD. It should be a belter.

UPDATE: the band have happily agreed to let me share a few tracks with you lot (a mix of 128kbs mp3 and wma files), so now you don't even have to leave the comforting smell of OPND to grab 'em. Nice one Kids! Thanks also to Randy for making this possible, much appreciated mate. Go pay him and them a visit and say hello.
