'Sounds like a young verson of us' Neville Staple (The Specials) .. 

  The Amnesiacs are an exciting Ska/rap/funk/indie group from Liverpool. Providing a scintillating rendition of contemporary Ska fused with a modern day twist, not recreating the past but rather pushing it forwards. The songs provide a sharp documentary of modern day living - subjects that affect us all in this current climate of social and political uncertainty. They combine their social awareness with humour and irony - a throw back to the golden era of socially conscious music and attitude. As a live act The Amnesiacs are a formidable force with boundless energy and enthusiasm. The stage show incorporates the five core Amnesiacs members, plus keyboards and a three piece brass section. Also their propensity to freestyle during the set makes the live performances vibrant, unpredictable and ultimately unforgettable. “Top Yourself” is currently featuring in Kev Sampson’s cult film “Awaydays”, released in May 2009, starring Steven Graham and Liam Boyle. It is a social take on the media hype surrounding the illusion of the supposedly self destructive world we’re living in right now. The track is available on the Amnesiacs debut album "Forget to Remember" and is available from iTunes. In the past The Amnesiacs have toured and shared stage with The Slits, Neville Staple, The Beat, Bad Manners and The Blockheads.
