Young Irish rockers The Strypes have released their first live record, currently available on iTunes UK and Soundcloud, Live in Tokyo 2015. It has ten tracks of their great blues-laced, raucous pub rock that draws influences from early Rolling Stones all the way to Arctic Monkeys. These lads only get better with each record.
British punk legends Gang of Four have a new PledgeMusic campaign in which you can order their upcoming live album – Live in London.
The campaign offers the live album as a digital download for about $12.00, but you can upgrade to a signed copy of the CD (recorded at London’s Islington Assembly Hall) and a DVD of their show at New York’s Irving Plaza from last year for only $26.00. That’s a good deal for a nice collectible, and I’ll probably jump on that.
Other fun offers include tickets to a future live show with a meet and greet, a signed set list, and even a microwave they tried to destroy on stage multiple times during their 2015 tour.
