For those of you who have come to see The Yalla Yallas live recently you may or may not have noticed that our song 'Retaliation (Doesn't Make It Alright)' has acquired an extra verse. I did not write this extra verse. I borrowed it from one of my favourite acts of the moment. Alt Track from Bradford. The have just released a fantastic debut album called 'Silence Is Approval' ... and on it is a track called 'No More'. It's my personal highlight but they are other belting songs on it. Alt Track are an Electro/Trip Hop/Punk outfit ... and for those of you who may or may not remember my solo work. I touched on this idea a few years ago ... and when I watched Alt Track live I was astounded. I thought YES!!!!! this is it ... This is what I wanted to achieve. They are getting the message across with beats and guitars. My words were 'These are the most punk rock act I've seen in ages' ... Although they don't sound like a punk rock act. They deliver the whole ethos and sentiment. They remind me of 90's Leeds act Bedlam ago-go. They are even doing a 'Pay What You Want' scheme for their album 'Silence Is Approval'
