Hello From Bombskare http://rvrb.fm/11fdIO5

Press

“Bombskare Impress At Mad Hatters - A 90 minute full on set saw glimpses of material from their new album whilst also interjecting covers ranging from ‘Inspector Gadget’ to ‘Walk like an Egyptian’. Retaining the fun but never compromising kudos. Indeed, this highlighted the skill of the band in combining a professionalism, a general tightness in the band with a real sense of the set being an organic, evolving and creative experience. In summary: fun.”

— Chris Lemon, InvernessGigs

“So much physicality is surely rarely seen in a band and the combination of a fantastic brass section and aerobic workout like dancing made this one of the best performances of the festival.”

— Megan Donald, Inverness Gigs - Loopallu 2011

“Review The Chop Shop E.P. - Irie Up Magazine 'Imagine The Beat (that's the English Beat for US readers) with a Scottish accent and you begin to get some idea of just how good this band is. Bombskare take Two-Tone as a starting point for their energetic ska, with lyrics that always have something to say, and some meandering sax playing that adds a distinctive flavour. This E.P. runs to 35 minutes - longer than some albums - and has three songs over eight tracks; the three are given remixes that reference deep dub, drum and bass, and even modern dance music, and two are also present in live versions. A little more adventurous than many ska revivalists, this makes for a fine introduction to the band, and bodes well for their upcoming album.”

— Norman Darwen., Irie Up Magazine

“These guys rock and truly are the best in the business…true musicians and true performers …rare attributes these days 10/10”

— Stuart Westwood, GigApe

“...the band delivered in spades what everyone had hoped for: a submergence, wave upon wave, of ska and energetic reggae which had fans, balding skinheads and pork pie hat wearers alike ablaze in a rude boy rapture from the off.”

— Ross Thomson, The Ark Magazine

“A Fistful of Dynamite This long awaited and much anticipated album marches boldly through the sound system with all the swagger that Edinburgh's original Ska juggernaut can muster - and I assure you it's boat loads......sn't stop being great and is an awesome finish to a great album. I've used the word relentless but don't let that decieve you - there's 14 .... very different songs and there's not a bad one amongst them. They're all brilliant. I'd challenge any band to match it ....”

— Ash, Ska Monkey
