We are excited to confirm that there will be, at long last, a full-length documentary film made charting the history of the band from humble beginnings in a Surrey scout hut through to the present day. As we speak, director David Boni is hard at work on the project, which couples live footage, interviews with band members and other exclusive content, telling the story of chart success, numerous incident-packed gigs and endless controversy. You can be a part of this exciting project, which has the full blessing of the band, by supporting David’s Pledge campaign to make the film a reality.

The album spawned two hit singles, firstly the ode to the Amsterdam Hell’s Angels Nice & Sleazy and secondly, the band’s legendary cover of Walk On By (which they also gave away as a white vinyl freebie with the first 75,000 copies of the album).

Last night Limerick saw the final gig of the 22 date definitive tour. Despite the false start due to blizzards & the rescheduling of the Irish dates, it’s been a mammoth trek since early March with sell out crowds throughout the tour.
