Amyl And The Sniffers live in November 2022 at the York Hall, Bethnal Green (Adam Hampton-Matthews for Live4ever)
Amyl And The Sniffers will conclude their latest UK tour in Sheffield in tonight (November 19th).
Amyl And The Sniffers head back to Australia next month to continue the touring which has kept the flame of Comfort To Me burning ever since the album’s release over a year ago now.
“Germaine Greer this isn’t, but the points are made succinctly,” our review reads. “And the band’s self-assessment of their enhanced proficiency is also smart and correct; Freaks To The Front is a raucous, two note stomp imbued with West Coast hardcore muscle, Don’t Fence Me In has a crotch grabbing, eyebrow shaving guitar solo and Don’t Need A Cunt (Like You To Love Me) is potty-mouthed pub rock with the ghost of Lemmy smiling down in approval from rock n’ roll nirvana.”
“If this lairy obsession with being provocative has been very much the quartet’s MO to date, there are signs that what could loosely be called finesse has burrowed its way in as well. Opener Guided By Angels is expansive both lyrically and musically on their deliberately roughneck past, the mental strictures of having life controlled by authority chafing more on them than others.”
