NEVILLE & SUGARY STAPLE VIDEO PREMIERE!

Former Special NEVILLE STAPLE and co-conspirator SUGARY STAPLE have a brand new video out, which they're premiering exclusively with Vive Le Rock!
'Way Of Life' is taken from the pair's new album Rude Rebels which is out now through Cleopatra.
Produced by Sugary and Neville alongside Specials producer Tom Lowry at Planet Studios, Coventry, the album also sees them reunited with another former Specials alumnus, Roddy Radiation aka Roddy Byers on guitar.
“The album was produced with our love of punk, ska, 2tone and reggae, which we mixed into an indulgent sub-culture blend. A bit like me,” says Sugary Staple. “Working alongside Neville on the production was just perfect. He gets me, and he understands where I am at musically and about my promotion of women going for it, regardless of age and situation. We both still have something to say in our productions, while still creating a dancing beat or a sing-along vocal.”
“I felt really free on this production," adds Neville. "Having the freedom to be creative with someone on your wave-length is really refreshing for me. I love how we celebrate the great musical genres of my 40-year career. There’s a little taste of The Specials in there, a Clash type of punk vibe and even Trojan Records styles. We’ve been touring some of the songs and the fans have gone nuts for it. Great to have my buddy Roddy on board too.”
Rude Rebels is available on CD and limited edition clear black'n'white splatter vinyl from Cleopatra and digitally via Bandcamp.
