Gosh haven't seen this video in yonks! I'm in it! Dancing at the front whilst they are playing in the bar (old blue last). Brings back soooo many memories! the good old days!!!
I love the Rakes. Comparing them to bands people think they sound like is a waste of effort. They're a good fun band. Enjoy them. Sure, there's a load of influences in there, but they're nonetheless unique, and they write some great songs. See them live if you can.
Good bunch of kids who put in great effort and deserve to be heard. Dont know if they'll last long - they've got some talent and their lyrics have punch but they need something beyond just a Buzzcock sound. Hope I'm wrong and longlive!
I think that they're one of those bands who have garnered a loyal fanbase so I'm sure they'll always be around, but they'll never be massive!! I think they're excellent!!
firstly if som1 fed the rakes it would negate their namesakes secondly they sound as much like like the kooks as the clash did to the sex pistols that is to say similar genre but a different adaptation/interpretation. the rule major mundo!
muy bien !!!
