Reducers S.f.
Raise Your Hackles
Still hanging tough in the streets of San Francisco, and gearing up for live gigs, new recordings, and more, this is REDUCERS S.F.s "latest" album. Previously only available on CD from TKO Records (in 2006), Raise Your Hackles was certainly a continued commentary about an ever-changing SF punk scene. Most of the original venues had shut down, and most of the bands they came up with had long since called it a day. but, throughout years of playing shows with the likes of COCK SPARRER, DROPKICK MURPHYS, SWINGIN UTTERS, ONE MAN ARMY and touring the USA, Europe and Japan, REDUCERS S.F. have stuck to their guns, and held their ground. Their signature sound, a blend of boot-boy glam, pub rock, and melodic UK punk, continues to place them in a league of their own in the international street punk scene, and give them respect worldwide as true originals. The 13 tracks on this album, available here for the first time on vinyl, are still as poignant as ever. Get it as part of the collectable Essentials set or just on its own. Its an absolute must-have for anyone whos been priced out of their city, worked too hard for too little, or just likes to scream and commiserate over a great beer, or a great band, with great friends! Heres to this chapter, and the next.
