Lineup Oi Polloi (Official) MANTILLA Moth Eaten Deer Head The band have been playing forever on an international circuit of grubby pubs, dingy squats with an old skool idealism and utopian ideals. In the 21st century many people would have you believe that this kind of thinking had died out and that everyone is happy to be a consuming monkey and that punk was content to be ddMTV polished but out there on the hinterland something is really stirring. Punk was only meant to last a couple of years but here is yet more proof of itﾒs lasting power. in 2011 punk is a folk form and these ancient institutions of bandﾒs are the modern equivalent of the blues legends people who have seen and done everything and yet still believe. Oi Polloi at full throttle sound like one of the most vital bandﾒs in the UK. Raging melodic hxc punk from Glasgow, Scotland. MANTILLA formed in late 2015 and released their first demo in early 2016, gigging across Europe and also touring in Brazil. Their current line up is made up of members of Thisclose, Headless Kross and The Cosmic Dead. They are a political DIY band and support the advancement of Indigenous Women\'s Rights globally. Their singer is regularly asked to speak at panels and conferences and is an active member of Rromani Resistance. They have teamed up with Oi Polloi on a split 7" which is out now, and are presently recording a new album which will be released in the summer of this year.
