  • In the home of betting shops, one name is currently looming large: Shame. The band thrives on confrontation. Whether it's the seething intensity that crackles on their debut, Songs of Praise, or the adrenaline-pumping chaos that unfolds at their thrilling shows fueled by big emotions

    Consisting of vocalist Charlie Steen, guitarists Sean Coyle-Smith and Eddie Green, bassist John Finerty and drummer Charlie Forbes, the London-based quintet started out as schoolboys. With a healthy DIY ethos as their foundation, and with The Fall and Wire as their musical influences, Shame carved out a niche for themselves in the South London music scene, fearlessly developing their sincere, angular, whipping post-punk

    The ten songs on "Songs of Praise" leave no questions unanswered. Whether it's "Gold Hole," a tongue-in-cheek takedown of rock narcissism, or the single "Concrete," which describes the overwhelming moment of realizing a doomed relationship, or the frustrated "Tasteless," which describes the monotony of everyday life. "Songs of Praise" offers no respite.
