I don’t “do” new acts, but last night I saw the best new band I have seen for over 20 years.
Imagine Cock Sparrer twinned with The Equals at their most hard-hitting with great original tunes.
This is the most fun I have enjoyed watching a live band since The Fleshtones in their prime. This is no single minded retro trip, but pure energy, loud, tight and concise.There have an LP and single...where they wear their influences on their sleeve. Giuda are playing again tonight (Sunday) in London again at The Stags Head in Dalston, just in case anyone can catch them in time before they depart these shores.
Top marks and a very rare Purepop endorsement.
Hear Number 10 here

Sounds very interesting. Never heard of the band Guida. Should check out. Thanks :)
If anyone is interested in ordering the vinyl version of this release, you need to go to the Deadbeat Records "rare/collectibles" dropdown menu to get to the right place. 7" is still listed as available, btw.
we made their first 7" record ever and the racey roller cd and we are so proud of that!! nice review! cheers from south of italy and from white zoo records!! :D
Hmmm, would like to hear a song that isn't a (nearly exact) cut & pastes of something else
Kinda reminds me of early Eddie & the Hot Rods,who,at the time were produced by glam rocker Andy Mc Kay of Roxy Music...Good stuff!
Antoine from France.
Just discovered this band after being a TAXI fan. Wow! best album I've heard in a long time. Right up my alley. I doubt there is any chance of them coming to the US(?) I need to know when they'll be back in London or if they play often around Italy because I'm going to be making the trip over there next year.
Any links for more info? Would love to know more about them but google won't tell me.
Try Youtube, there are plenty of clips
Giuda will be returning to London on Friday 21st September where they will be playing at The Buffalo Bar http://www.buffalobar.co.uk/
(Highbury & Islington tube) as part of the Wired Up book launch party: https://www.facebook.com/#!/wiredupbook
