VIDEO OF THE WEEK – CONCRETE HYENA
This new project featuring Jay Butler from Real TV and Grand Theft Audio and Jim Davies from Pitchshifter and The Prodigy, alongside Toshi from Slaves To Gravity and The Professionals, deliver a suitably sucker punching video to what they themselves describe as “a sly musical homage to the toxic Rocky movie masculinity of the ’80s”.
