THE ARTERIES Divergence

Swansea Sigma
March 20th 2010



I was pretty pumped to be seeing The Arteries playing a hometown show and the driving punk rockers didn't let me down, with a set that featured a couple of new songs and some live favourites. I also managed to film this track, another ripper from their album that I somehow haven't filmed yet (yes, I know it's hard to believe!) Again, sorry for the poor sound but the big crowd sing-along 3/4 of the way through makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Incredible. Other highlights include frontman Miles headbanging like a winner, Steve and Trev singing along with their arms around each others' shoulders (love you guys) and Lotti crowd surfing.

Thanks again to Trev and all the bands for a mind blowing gig and Trev especially for the awesome chilli, place to crash and trip to the beach the next day. Legend.

This song is taken from the essential debut album 'Blood, Sweat & Beers', available on both CD (through Household Name) and bubblegum pink 12" vinyl at the band's SWFU! Records online shop.
