Description:

The Riots, the Moscow-based neo-mod band that was featured at the beginning of the Acid Jazz label's "Hipsters 3" compilation, have completed their long-awaited full-length album! The Riots are the reincarnation of The White Trainers Community, the legendary neo-mods band that left behind the classic album "The Long Play" and the single "Modern Boys," both of which were wildly popular among mod fans. (vocals, guitar), Alex Shanin (vocals, drums), and Kirill Usachev (vocals, bass).The neo-mod sound of The Jam, Secret Affair, Small World, etc., and the singalong indie rock M-2 "Me" reminiscent of early to mid-period UK rock bands like The Clash, The Libertines, The Holloways, etc., the tight mod-punk M-5 "The Only Life I Know" reminiscent of The Jam, Joe Strummer-esque calypso, and two songs that are reminiscent of The Specials~Madness. The tight mod-punk M-5 "The Only Life I Know" reminiscent of The Jam, Joe Strummer-esque calypso, 2-tone ska M-7 "Brixton" reminiscent of The Specials and Madness, and the comfortable M-9 "Reggae Flavor" with a touch of reggae. The album also features a pleasant M-9 "Living At The Edge" with a reggae flavor that will appeal to both UK rock fans and ska and punk fans. A masterpiece that will appeal to Ska and Punk fans alike! Included as bonus tracks on the Japanese CD are three unbeatable songs from the 7" single, "Dance On Your Problems," "Out Of Control," and "Tomorrow," which sold out immediately.
