The Wrongstar Society - "We created Hooligan Step"

Did you ever feel that Audio Bullies were quite cool but not cool enough? Did you ever feel that Mike Skinner was teetering on the edge of total brilliance but never quite made it? What was missing?

What was missing was the raw, unadulterated punky energy which The Wrongstar Society have got in absolute bucketloads. Stella-swilling, biscuit munching, Essex lads through-and-through, you wouldn't introduce them to your Mum but throw them a mike and some decks and they'll totally mess things up for you!

The critics say -

"The Wrongstars are trouble with a capital T. These boys have finally made a stand against all this bullshit music thats out there at the moment and it feels good. You can tell they have actaully lived the fights, the trouble and the carnage. If they can carry this on without getting arrested and fucking everything up, we could be looking at a very exciting band" - NME.com

"Apparently born out of a time when waiting for The Man in deepest Essex, the Wrongstar Society now have an album 'Beats, Rhymes & Conflicts' ready to go. The first taste utilises rolling breaks and twangy bass guitar, intercut with a cheeky vocal and varied beat pattern interludes. Almost sounds like a stop/start Merka cut, so it's apt that they get him to remix 'Battle'. A shouty Audio Bullys vocal is warped into a Merka shuffly thing, complete with UFO fills and squiggles. Different." DJ Mag

The DJs say

"Wrongstars have a new fresh different sound which is great for the breaks scene" - Rennie Pilgrem

"Love the Wrongstars stuff have been playing "Give it to them" loads" - Utah Saints

"Im feeling "Give it to them." Good, pushing Bass!" - Leeroy Thornhill (ex-The Prodigy)

"Love "Give it to them," will be using on our Radio One Mix" - Aquasky

If you're signed up to NSB you can get two of their tracks off their album for free (you need to register, if you haven't already I totally recommend it), otherwise go to www.myspace.com/the_wrongstars and listen for yourself.

And here's a mix they did for Rennie Pilgrem's radio show - enjoy!
