Тексты песен The Adicts
Информация о артисте
Основной привлекательной чертой данного британского коллектива является имидж-участники группы крепко подсели на фильм Стэнли Кубрика "Заводной апельсин" и извлекли из него немало пользы для своего стильного внешнего вида. В музыкальном плане Adicts отталкивались от Ramones с влиянием земляков Buzzcocks, как это наиболее заметно на первых двух альбомах — 'Songs Of Praise' и 'Sound Of Music' Оригинальный состав группы включал в себя вокалиста Monkey (Keith Warren), барабанщика Kid Dee (Michael Davison), гитариста Pete Davidson и басиста Mel Ellis Звукозаписывающие лейблы группа поначалу меняла как перчатки. И меняла даже не на водку, а на другие лейблы Дебютный ЕР lunch With The Adicts' (1981) явился первым релизом независимой компании Dining Out, но затем последовало с полдюжины перемещений, порою в промежутке между двумя синглами. Но подобная нестабильность ни капли не отразилась на музыке — ранние работы Adicts комфортно осели в коллекциях как одни из наиболее добротных образцов шустрого британского поп-панка. Наибольший успех группе принесли два сингла — 'Chinese Takeaway' и 'Bad Boy' (в 1982 и 1983 годах соответственно), которые добились права фигурировать в Тор-10 независимых британских чартов, (Оба трэка можно услышать на сборнике 'Totally Adicted'). Второй лонгплей даже загремел в национальные чарты на… 99 место.
С каждым годом музыка труппы все более лишалась примоченного и драйвового панк-саунда, углубляясь в дебри пост-панка, и команда даже пыталась сменить название — на А.D.X. (вышло два ЕР в 1984 и 1985 годах) и The Fun Adicts. Однако в конце 80-х на фоне общего провала в британском панк-роке Adicts продолжали считаться хранителями настоящего духа сгинувшей панк-революции. Read more on Last.fm.

The Adicts are an English Punk rock band from Ipswich, Suffolk. They began life as the Afterbirth & The Pinz, in their hometown of Ipswich in late 1975. Popular in the 1980s, they were often in the indie charts at that time.
They soon changed their name to The Adicts and became known for their distinctive Clockwork Orange 'Droog' image, which, along with their urgent, uptempo music and light-hearted lyrics, helped set them very much apart from the rest of the genre. Temporary 1980s name changes to ADX and FUN ADICTS, for a children's TV appearance, also occurred.
Their song "Viva La Revolution" was featured in the video game Tony Hawk's Underground.
The band still has all its original members, uncommon for a band with such longevity.
The music of The Adicts proves that punk music is a very broad genre, often featuring extra instruments and sound clips such as carousel music (How Sad), violin played by Derick Cook (Joker in the Pack), gongs and keyboard percussion by Anthony Boyd (Chinese Takeaway), and even completely different songs like the switch to Gain To Lose's Tune #24 at the end of G.I.R.L..
The look of the majority of the bandmates is that of the Droogs from the Stanley Kubrick film A Clockwork Orange based on the book by Anthony Burgess. All white with black combat boots and black bowler hats. The band says that the look appealed to them because of the teenage angst associated with A Clockwork Orange. Singer "Monkey" wears full joker make-up and his clothes are wild, patterned suits, flared trousers, colorful dress shirts, and other such things. His favorites seem to be checkerboard patterns, or polkadots. And of course, there's the obligatory bowler hat and gloves. Along with the look come stage antics involving streamers, confetti, playing cards, joker hats, toy instruments, and glitter just to name a few things.
