Bromheads Jacket

When Bromheads Jacket emerged as La key member of the Sheffield indie scene of the noughties, nobody knew how to pigeon hole them. Lead singer and songwriter Tim Hampton sang, not with a Yorkshire twang but in a thick Surrey accent. His band were heavier than everyone else. “The Streets with guitars” was about the best the music had press could come up with to describe what was, at that point a new sound. Fast forward 18 years and a plethora of post punk bands have adopted the sound. Some like the brilliant Idles have gone on to enjoy great success in the genre. Bromheads Jacket meanwhile spectacularly imploded in a haze of glorious self sabotage. Hampton’s honest assessment that they “fucked it up”. It’s hard to disagree. Now, they’re back with a bunch of new material, sounding better than ever to rightfully reclaim their title as forerunners to the modern post punk scene.
