Bad Manners - Ben E Wriggle

Review by Joe Dolson

Bad Manners' latest album, Ben E Wriggle, is a fun and energetic collection of ska and reggae tracks that will have listeners dancing and singing along. The band's signature brass section and frontman Buster Bloodvessel's unique vocals are on full display throughout the album, making it a must-listen for any fan of the genre.

The album kicks off with the upbeat and catchy "Don't Knock the Baldheads," which sets the tone for the rest of the record. Other standout tracks include the infectious "Babylon's Burning," the ska-infused "Feel Like Jumping," and the reggae-inspired "My Girl Lollipop."

While the album is certainly a throwback to the band's early days, Bad Manners also manages to infuse some modern touches into the songs, such as the use of electronic beats on "Cupid Stupid" and the incorporation of rap lyrics on "Got No Brains."

Summary by Joe Dolson

Ben E Wriggle is a solid addition to Bad Manners' discography and a fun listen for anyone looking for some upbeat ska and reggae tunes.
