Mod is back (I'm In The Mood For A Riot, Baby)
All of a sudden every new band name begins with "The". Thirtysomethings tell each other on cocktail parties that Punk is "back again". Rolando Random & The Young Soul Rebels are the band so far behind fashion to be the real avantgarde. They combine the snotty Punk attitude of the late 70ies with Ska, soulful Reggae, Mestizo rhythms and catchy refrains to makes the audience dance right from the first song and sing along with a raised fist.
The Young Soul Rebels are no nobodies: The musicians play and played with Mother's Pride, Yummy, The Pillocks, Madlock's and Blechreiz.
The "band release party" took place in a parish hall in the run-down Berlin disctrict Wedding on February 15th 2003. As a little bonus, a friend of the band celebrated his diploma that evening (he's a brewer). Now it hast almost become tradition for the audience to throw lingerie on the stage.
