NE Volume Spitfire, by the Spitfire Bullets Review

Spitfire, by the Spitfire Bullets

Review By: Paul Heatly

Band: Spitfire Bullets

Album/Single Name: Spitfire

Sunderland based Spitfire Bullets are a three-piece punk band with a distinctly 70’s aesthetic, their fuzz-laden three-chord sound reminiscent of the likes of The Sex Pistols, Sham 69, and in some places even The Misfits.


Their single ‘Spitfire’ is representative of what they are: a throwback to a former era, embodied by the youth of today and eager to prove angry, dirty, paranoid punk rock isn’t dead yet. Propelled by storming drum work, throbbing bass lines, an angry guitar and some growling vocals that must surely leave the singer in need of a lozenge after every set, Spitfire Bullets are successful at what they want to do, which is presumably to make their music and have a good time. What they’re doing isn’t original or unique, but it’s done with passion, with a clear love for punk and everything it stands for, and it’s this love that shines through their music most of all.
