The London duo Audio Bullys consists of Tom Dinsdale and Simon Franks. Together they make very infectious dance music that has already been labeled 'punkhouse' and 'hooligan house' in their own country. The music and raps on the debut album Ego War are strongly reminiscent of the CD Original Pirate Material that their fellow countryman Mike Skinner released in 2002 under the alias The Streets. The… Audio Bullys themselves say they were mainly influenced by rebellious sounding bands like The Specials, Happy Mondays and Stereo MC's. In my opinion, Fatboy Slim, Underworld and Chemical Brothers are missing from that list, because just like with the latter acts, the (big-) beats, the cool grooves, the original samples and the production on Ego War sound accessible enough for 'normal' pop - and rock audience. In a vision I even see tens of thousands of people on a large, sun-drenched festival grounds (Pinkpop? Rock Werchter? Lowlands?) jump up and down to the music of Audio Bullys as they roar along with massive hooligan house anthems like Real Life, We Don't Care (the great first single) and Veteran. It should be clear: Ego War is one of the nicest dance CDs released in 2003. (MvP)more
