The Blaggers re-release “United Colors” on Mad Butcher Classics
The Blaggers’ classic streetpunk album ‘United Colors of Blaggers ITA’ has been re-released on the Mad Butcher Classics label. On release in 1993, United Colors inspired a generation of anti-fascists and spent several months in the UK Indie Chart top ten. The Blaggers became one of the most talked-about bands in the UK and their notoriety had much to do with their tough anti-fascist stance and the violence that occasionally erupted at gigs. However, this was backed up by classic anthemic tunes that owed as much to the attitudes and sounds of rave culture as they did to punk rock.
Also included on the CD is the six-track ‘Blaggamuffin’ mini LP and three bonus tracks / remixes.
The album includes new art work, sleeve notes and music press reviews.
The songs ‘Wildside’ (from United Colors) and ‘Pitbull Mentality’ (from Blaggamuffin) can be heard on the Blaggers’ MySpace page:
