They used to be called The Hills, they've changed the name and the singer, but still went down well in The Woolie!

Playing only their second gig as Ladykillers, 75% of The Hills (plus a newbie) performed at The Woolpack last Friday night.

Two guitars, drums and a singing bass player make a good racket at any time, and when they cover punky/indie songs - with the occasional rock and roll classic - you're on a winner.

First song was "I Predict A Riot", The Kaisers anthem, and set the scene perfectly. The first set featured C'Mon Everybody from the sixties and up to date songs from The Libertines, Green Day, The Kooks (yay!), all rattled through at breakneck speed and with loads of energy. A great performance of Blitzkrieg Bop by The Ramones went down a storm.

The Hills became Ladykillers due to the loss of their singer, so Mr Bass is doing the job while a new frontman is found. Don't hold this again them though, you wouldn't want Russell Watson singing these kind of songs would you!

Second set went by in a blur, possibly caused by musical overload or possibly by Kronenbourg over-indulgence. Highlights, and stand out songs of the evening for me, were Chelsea Dagger and When The Sun Goes Down (he's a scumbag don't you know), and I'd recommend checking this lot out as soon as you can.

And if you want to book them call Paul on 07894350002.
