A Certain Ratio

Monday, 15 June

Dingwalls, Middle Yard, Camden, NW1 8AB

Live Music: , Punk

How Much: £12.00 (Advance Tickets)
Similar to Joy Division insofar as they had a crypto-fascist sounding name, came from Manchester and formed around the same time, A Certain Ratio blazed a trail that was much more dance-floor orientated than most of thier compatriots.

They took funk bass lines, added them to latin and jazz influences and made something that kids could flail around to at the Hacienda, rather than just looking miserable which they did most of time anyway.

Although never as commercially successful as they would like, the band has stuck with it right up to the present day, and with the recent revival and renewed interest in post punk bands that seems to have swept the nation in the last 12 months, they are finally getting some of the recognition they deserve, as a packed-out Dingwalls will no-doubt testify.
