#8: BAD BREEDING

Bad Breeding exploded on to the Tipping Point this year with a spirit and fervour that hasn’t been seen for a while. In fact, as much as an almost-40-years-ago-kinda-while. ‘Age of Nothing‘ was the track that popped up on our radar, a tune full of passion and youthful ferocity, like a howl in the wind of this oh so bloody depressing Britain we currently live in. Masterfully produced by Spring King‘s Tarek Musa, it’s a track that not only gets your attention, but metaphorically grabs you by the balls and demands it.

Fast forward over half a year and things have continued in that fashion. With songs like ‘Chains‘ and ‘Burn This Flag‘, Bad Breeding keep spoiling us with guttural, adrenaline-fuelled tunes littered with Generation Y devastation. Stevenage’s top dogs are almost certainly a force to be reckoned with going into 2015, and with tunes like theirs, and a live reputation that’s slowly but surely garnering national interest, we have no option but to sit by and let them take over.
