The Cottonettes are an insanely catchy new punk band!

There’s something about The Cottonettes’ look that brings a British aesthetic to mind, similar in aura to bands of the late 2000s indie-rock scene; nothing like the ’77 culture that would have been part of the Oi/Punk! scene. And yet, the band have seamlessly merged these two incompatible genres together. Undoubtedly the band’s appointment as an “Oi! Pop” band is a truthful identification of the sound.

Hailing from the Surrey/Hampshire borders The Cottonettes were formed by Cockney twanged ragamuffin, Benjamin Madle with his former rival, curly haired gobsh*te, Josh Young then later joined by international playboy, Adam Broadbent. Since 2012 their punk flavoured pop has spread like sars gaining admirers from respected music industry figures in BBC radio, Amazing Radio, Bella Union, The Huffington Post, and most importantly astute eared music lovers.

“Punk rock as it should be” – BBC Introducing

Here are the lyrics for you!

So you’re back round here again
Well I kinda wanna see you
Well my head says I shouldn’t
But my heart says I must

Shall we go out for a drink?
Will you tell me how much you changed?
Well I really don’t believe ya’
No I really don’t believe ya’

Before I even know it,
It’s happened again
It’s happened again
It’s happened again

Oh no Yoko did it again
Oh no Yoko did it again
Oh no Yoko did it again

not gonna pick up the pieces this time
not gonna pick up the pieces this time

Well I better get going
‘Cos it’s getting kinda late
Yeah your friends are fucking boring
Yeah and you’re welcome to it

So you’re back round here again
‘Cos I don’t wanna see ‘ya
‘Cos I don’t really like ya
And I won’t be back later
