Half Man Half Biscuit and Madame claude

Half Man Half Biscuit, despite their awful band name are quite intriguing as a band. They’re sort of a punk rock band with such a gritty guitar driven sound. They have been a band since 1984, hailing from a place called Birkhead. I found myself going along to watch one of their recent gigs in London, where they performed to one of the most rowdy audiences I’d ever seen, and also quite possibly one of the most intoxicated it seems.

They perform some of their biggest hits to this day keeping the audience engaged and happy. One of the biggest yet is a song called “Joy Division Oven Gloves” which really creates a buzz in this room. “Trumpeton Riots” also received a great reaction too. Each song sort of blends into the next, but in fairness with this sort of brand of punk rock there’s not an awful lot that you can do with it in fairness and to be fair, no one here cares!
