Black Peter Group

It's been a big month for London's Black Peter Group. Their debut LP It's Still Fucked Up drops on 12.22.08.

For those who are are unfamiliar, "Black Peter Group is a New York / London based band fronted by multi media artist Gio Black Peter, who plays Rudolph in the recently-released Bruce La Bruce film Otto; Or Up With Dead People. They make booty bass electro. What does this mean? Nothing. Because they don't let labels restrict them from making hits like It's Fucked Up!- a fusion of hillbilly 2-step and punk. Or for that matter Goody Two Shoes, a cover of the Adam Ant 50's inspired rockabilly pop, which suits Gio's distinctive vocal perfectly."

Read more on the band's MySpace. They played an after party for the Black Market with London's Warboy a few summers back at the now defunct dive bar/club Rififi (it's now a Buffalo Exchange) and it was pure madness. If you get a chance to see one of their live shows, do not miss it! Check out the list of current 2009 tour dates here.

The first single from the LP is available as a FREE download here. And in case you missed it, check out Gio Black Peter's live interview on Radio 1 with super Dj Producer KISSY SELL OUT (remember him?!?).

And don't miss videos of the group on their YouTube channel. You'll get an idea of the madness that is the Black Peter Group playing live.
