Hard to believe but Kirk Brandon has now been leading SPEAR OF DESTINY for over thirty years, prescription formed ’83 after the demise of seminal post punk icons THEATRE OF HATE.

The current Spear is the longest serving to date and features Adrian Portas (New Model Army / Sex Gang Children), Craig Adams (Sisters of Mercy / The Cult / The Mission) and Phil Martini (Jim Jones and The Righteous Mind) on drums. Long time Brandon cohort Steve Allan-Jones on keys.

The current live show pulls on songs from all the immense SOD back catalogue. The classics Liberator, Mickey, Rainmaker, The Wheel, Never Take Me Alive etc are all there, alongside newer fan favourites Age of Unreason, Prison Planet, Judas, Lucky Man, Last Man Standing and of course a handful of songs from ’31’.

“Criminally underrated – one of Britain’s best, Boys Own, punch the air, grandiose Rock’n’Roll bands” – John Robb, Louder Than War

“Brandon puts his all into every song with epic bombast, coming across as a tragic rock n roll anti-hero. He is the Wagner of rock n roll. And the haircut’s still pretty cool, 9/10” – Louder Than War

“Thirty one years together makes for flawless instrumentals, a unique sound, and some remarkable riffs and harmonies” – Aberdeen Voice
