Description
Having sold 2.5 million albums around the world and a run of hit singles including 'The Fun Lovin' Criminal', 'King of New York', 'Korean Bodega', 'Loco' and the hit single 'Scooby Snacks', Fun Lovin' Criminals have created a unique and thoroughly
brilliant sound which combines hip-hop, jazz rhythms, traditional rock and blues riffs and lot of bad boy humour.
FLC return with their first release on Sanctuary and their most infectious record to date 'Welcome To Poppy's'. The album features live favourite 'Baby' a great punk rock tune, new single, 'Too Hot', which is a classic F-L-C tune and a song that looks set to become a smash, and a rock track, 'Lost It All' a three minute burst of guitars and "ooh ooh" and "hey" backing shouts.
Fresh from a headline slot at Lee 'Scratch' Perry's Meltdown Festival in the UK which The Guardian described as "monstrously entertaining" and "a vivid reminder of not only what a great dance band they are, but also how successfully they have overhauled the notion of 'rock band'", the band are set to tour the world with their new album, new drummer and new lease on life.
And yes, it is the same band that made waves whilst in Australia by going mad at the ARIAS and fighting with members of fellow UK band Underworld whilst out here. Isn't it good to see that despite trial by video, there's still bands prepared to have a rock'n'roll ruckus off the ball.
