Re: What's Paul Simonon up to these days

His Galen and Paul album from last year is great fun. Highly recommended.

Re: Shades of Plato

Quality as high as ever. Really like the Wayne Hussey type riff, and with the vocals/flute you really have your own sound. Can't wait to see you live especially if you play up North (hint , hint). Thanks for taking the time to check it out Palais, really appreciated. Glad you enjoyed it. Yeah...we ...

Re: Shades of Plato

Hi all. Here's our new single...'Mission Creep '. It's probably our heaviest track. Our resident guitarist, Jack Sorrow, provides a blistering solo! Play very loud! https://youtu.be/G6MhfxJSp64?si=8x5ppD0fKz5dY_E_ It's available on all digital platforms, if you are inclined to give it a spin or add ...

Re: Shades of Plato

As promised, here's our new single, 'She Still Comes In Colours', which won't be on the new album. Probably our poppiest track to date. Play loud and dance! Love and respect, RR https://youtu.be/TwOJsfbSId8?si=zD52ubQ5m3xoDQIR Excellent song - good video as well - but no sign of your drummer on the...
