“The Penny Black Remedy Don’t Play Venues, More Like Storm Them…. They Remind You Just How Powerful Live Music Can Be…”
Following their riotous debut single ’95 Charing Cross Road’, The Penny Black Remedy further parade their unique blend of ska, blues, reggae, country and rock with this, their excellent first full length album, ‘No One’s Fault But Your Own’ – released through their own label, Soundinistas on May 18th 2009.
Recorded and produced in Zagreb, Croatia, by the successful Croatian Songwriter/Performer Robert Nappholz who performs and writes for the infamous Croatian band Fali V, ‘No Ones Fault But Your Own’ is a brilliant body of work showcasing the superb songwriting talents of lead singer Keith M Thomson, and the wonderful musical knitwork of the ensembled musicians who masterfully execute his unique vision of Balkan-style country ska.
Effortlessly blending an array of different musical styles and combining this with such varied themes throughout the album including unemployment, brothels, love, death and filmstars the diversity of the member’s backgrounds becomes strongly apparent. Indeed, all four members hail from different countries.
After moving to London, a combination of serendipity and sordid late-night drinking sessions soon brought him into contact with exactly the sort of likeminded and talented musicians who could make his idea’s become a reality.
