REVIEW: 45 Adapters – Now or Never EP (Pirates Press Records)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

45 Adapters<\/strong> are a streetpunk band from Brooklyn, New York, named after the little plastic gizmos used to make ex-jukebox 7in singles play on your turntable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

They’re far from being your typical oi! band though, as their sound is also influenced by ska, R&B and rock ‘n’ roll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Formed in 2008, they’ve had a few line-up changes over the years, and this six-song EP is their first release in nearly five years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Pirates Press<\/a><\/strong>, which produces some of the best-looking records around, has excelled itself: Now Or Never is pressed on 12in UV digitally-printed vinyl, to make it look like it’s made of glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyone who bought the PPR sampler For Family And Flag Vol 1<\/strong> (reviewed here<\/a><\/em>) at the back end of last year will already be familiar with the excellent title track which opens this short but sweet set, which clocks in at a touch under 15 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
