LIVE REVIEW: Zero Tolerance + Force Fed Lies, The Black Bull, Gateshead, Saturday 7 December 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Another Saturday\nnight and another trip to the Black Bull, just a couple of miles from home, to\nsee two local bands who I\u2019ve seen lots of flyers for of late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make no mistake,\ndespite what the mainstream music media might tell you, punk is most certainly\nnot dead. In fact, it\u2019s thriving at grassroots level thanks to nights like\nthis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Black Bull is\ntypical of small venues all over the UK, where landlords and promoters are\ngiving bands somewhere to play, at a time when so many venues have disappeared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rebellion Festival in Blackpool might be the weekend of the year which grabs the attention, as the tourists come out with their cameras to catch the punks in all their finery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it\u2019s nights like this which provide a platform for bands to appear at such an event. And I’m pleased to say, with our country never more divided, that many of these grassroots bands are political. that certainly applies to tonight’s two bands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First up were Force Fed Lies<\/strong>, a three-piece from South Tyneside who\u2019ve been doing the rounds for a while, but  I\u2019d never seen until six weeks ago. I\u2019ve made up for lost time, as this was the third time since then that I\u2019ve seen them, and they\u2019ve played a few more gigs than that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like them more\nevery time I see them, really warming to their 77 punk-meets-Discharge style, and\nsteady gigging means new drummer Kev is now bedded in nicely alongside\nguitarist Carlton and bassist Steve, who share vocal duties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their 10-song set was again their debut album Begging For Change (get it and their other merch from their Facebook page here<\/a><\/strong>), played in a different order, and this time the opener Bibles And Bombs and Eye For An Eye which stood out from the rest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tonight\u2019s headlines\nwere Zero Tolerance, a band from County Durham who I hadn\u2019t seen before. They\u2019ve\nonly been together about a year, but the members are gig-hardened due to time\nin other bands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They describe\nthemselves as a street-punk band, and to my old ears they sound like an updated\nversion of old-school oi! bands like The Last Resort and The 4 Skins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The line-up is Graeme Kitto on vocals, Guy Clark\non guitar, Ian Kinsman on bass and Jim Atteridge on drums, and\nthey make a very good noise indeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As far as I can tell they have just the one release to their name, a self-titled seven-track mini album on the Research & Destroy label, which you can get at their gigs or from their bandcamp page here<\/strong><\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a limited edition of 300\ncopies, so I wouldn\u2019t hang about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All seven tracks received an airing\nduring their set, and my favourites were the bass-driven Watching The TV, which\nhas a real air of foreboding, Brotherhood, about the punk scene, and their\nclosing Champagne Charlie Wankers, which needs no explanation really.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"

Their set extended to 15 tracks in\nall, which suggests there\u2019s plenty more fuel in their tank, with songs like\nFuck the Politicians and My God\u2019s Bigger Than Yours particularly hitting the\nspot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hopefully with so many unrecorded songs under their belt it won\u2019t be long before we hear more from Zero Tolerance, and I, for one,  can\u2019t wait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
