Biography

22-20s are a British rock band, originally formed in Sleaford, Lincolnshire, who disintegrated scarcely two years after their acclaimed 2004 self titled debut LP. In 2008, a reconstituted version of the band reformed around the founding nucleus of singer/guitarist Martin Trimble, bassist Bartup and drummer James Irving, adding Dan Hare on guitar and backing vocals.

Product Description

Amazon.co.uk

The 22-20s may claim they're not rooted in the blues, but it takes roughly one minute's worth of listen to any of their songs to see that they may be stretching things the truth just a bit. From the jarring squall of their dirty fuzz guitars to the massively reverberating drum sound, the blues in its Hives-and-White-Stripes-garage-rock glory is present and correct, and a treat for fans of either of those bands. The dynamic of the 22-20s equates to a whirlwind of sound, sweeping up everything in its heavy path, very reminiscent of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club but with slightly more definition. The added bonus of having keyboards in the mix increases the band's range, but they still manage to retain the edge of rawness that benefits all bands whose primary objective is to make you want to groove. If there's one complaint to this album, it's that the songs maintain a certainly predictability- either the constant tempo of the heaviest songs, or the usual weakness of the acoustic tracks like "Friends". This may wear on some, but the ferocity and talent of the band manage to hold attention for anyone with a passing interest in today's garage rock scene. --Thom Allott

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding 22 Sep 2004
By Mr. Nick Pace
Format:Audio CD
Well written, well crafted and beautifully performed.
This is a debut that ranks along side the the debut albums of The Stone Roses, Blur & Oasis.
This is bluesy without being blues and rocky without being rock, it meets the two genres half way and really works.
The album kicks in with "The Devil In Me" which is a wondeful track and the standard never drops. All the singles are on here and this deserves to be massive. If you want to take a chance on some new music, liked the singles or you're a fan of the Stones then I'd recommend this CD 5/5

5.0 out of 5 stars Rock n' Roll isn't dead after all!! 16 Dec 2004
By D. Gore
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I came across this album purely by chance and it turned out to be a stroke of good luck.

The style isn't original, but the songs are special enough for you not to care. There's certainly a Doors influence in there, with a raw, unpolished sound that works astonishingly well and, for some weird reason, reminds me of The Animals.

"Devil In Me" is a cracking start to the album and, when followed by "Such A Fool", you know your in for a treat. There are a couple of tracks that take a few listens to get used to and "The Things That Lovers Do" is the weak track on the album. However the icing on this particular cake is "Shoot Your Gun" which has to be one of the finest tracks I've heard in ages.

All in all, a fantastic debut that deserves the plaudits it's received from the media.
