lyrics
ALL ROADS LEAD TO HULME
They used to say this was a no go area
Even Bobby wouldn't walk this beat
Then they tore down the Birley Tree
& built student flats at the end of the street
Its just a zoo for a transient population
A shit example set for the next generation
They say its for community
But it stinks of gentrification to me
Chorus:
Stuff your yuppie flats, we're happy with the rats
She's living in the ghetto
The Paper told her so
the city got plans for this place
A place that she don't know
She used to know her neighbours
Used to go and knock round
Borrow a cup of sugar, cup of tea or a few pound
And Gary's dad squatted here
Back in the day
Then they put him in this block of flats
To keep him out the way
Well now it's prime property
In a prime location
On the city limits
It's prime for expansion
Unaffordable housing springing up all over town,
As all the old flats have been sold or ripped down
Day in day out the ground beneath your feet
Turns in to Tupperware towers for the social elite
Communities ripped apart as the developers move in
& if you don't like it you better get moving
Cos the yuppies yeah there coming in next door
Shouting turn that fuckin' music down there banging on the floor
supported by 57 fans who also own “All Roads Lead to Hulme”
Ska Punk as good as it gets. Other bands would benefit from taking notes. Culture Shock is relevant as always with the contemporary lyrics, and the music will force you to nod in rhythm whether you want to or not. Droote
Beautifully moody art rock from Virginia that recalls the dark glory of bands like Echo & the Bunnymen and Psychedelic Furs. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 18, 2020
