Punks Not Dad - Monkey Boots!!!

Morning, all!

You are being sent this message because you should know about Cardiff's very own middle-aged punk colossus - PUNKS NOT DAD.

The Dads' new single, MONKEY BOOTS, is out today - and whilst it would be expecting too much of you to actually buy the bl**dy thing so that we might improve on the chart position of #75 that we achieved back in 2009, you could at least watch the video.

In fact, you should definitely watch the video if you like Peter Bowles (out of To the Manor Born), Lisa Rogers (off of that Scrapheap Challenge), paunchy middle-aged men playing at rock stars, Adam & the Ants, rubbish animation, and cut-price 80s Dr Martens rip-offs.

It should be viewed immediately at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQQH26o0MHA

If the link doesn't work, just go to YouTube and type PUNKS NOT DAD - MONKEY BOOTS

If you like it ... Well, it would be very, very good of you to facebook it, email it, tweet it, or whatever it is that people actually do instead of going out these days. But don't, whatever you do, download lots of copies from amazon and itunes in order to gift them to friends. That'd just be wrong ...

ignacius I'm sid from the band this is our third single/video we also have a full album 'we are the dads'. the other vids are easy to find one is elsewhere on these boards somewhere 'i can't get it up' the other, 'in me shed' is easy to find on you tube. we are sid life crisis (vox) johnny Cardigan (guit) joe strimmer (bass)and adrian viles (drums) we also have an honoury fifth member ms lisa rogers, who is our tokee woman and doesn't actually do anything except be brill in our vids. hope that answers your questions

WHen you say Lisa Rogers..... does she though?

apparently so....with great skill and panache. unfortunately ive never been around to verify her wild boasts

Joe Strimmer! Excellent!

Fancy a review/interview? I think you're band's ace. Have a look at our website (including our Dead Kennedy's piece here: http://www.therakeandherald.tv/culture/culturestory.php?id=162). If you fancy it, send me an email (address on website) and we'll take it from there.

Brilliant! I had a pair of monkey boots (and that copy of Smash Hits :3)... loved the song and the video, lolled at the line 'Peter, I know you've got a bus to catch...' Keep the punk flag flying chaps!
