The Tin Pot Operation
Wednesday, September 30th, 2009
Notorious contrarians, Tin Pot Operation expound their own brand of anti-establishmentarian alternative indie punk madness. As they admit themselves, it is entirely unlikely that their music will ever be used in a mobile phone advert; something which doesn’t bother them in the slightest.
Forging their sound out from the raw materials of life in native Belfast, their music is honest, perceptive and uncompromising. Describing their music, they say that it is “Sort of the abandoned offspring of Punk getting lucky with Indie after a bottle of Absinthe. Veering between XTC, SLF, Talking Heads and Billy Bragg”.
Their latest much anticipated album “Human Resources” definately does not dissapoint. According to NME this “self-released slab of wax is a beautifully battered sonic manifesto and it sums up their hometown better than any empty-headed politician ever could.” Nicely put, NME.
By now, you must be curious what Tin Pot Operation are all about. Luckily, you check em out on the player to the right, else head over to Spotify for a listen. If you get hooked, you can also find “Human Resources” on most online music stores, such as iTunes and Amazon MP3.
