THE LEVELLERS
PEACE
ON THE FIDDLE
★★★★
The Levellers are much like a vintage VW camper van: a bit scruffy, they’ve been knocked about a bit and aren’t to everybody’s taste, but no one can deny they’re solid, dependable survivors. Recalling a late 80s Waterboys – but with their eyes on the pub, not the heavens – they remain fired up with a righteous, justifiable indignation, and their Doc Marten rock is still festooned with folkish fiddle like it’s going out of fashion, which of course it probably is.
