New Model Army are an English post-punk/alternative rock band formed in Bradford, West Yorkshire in 1980 by its lead singer and main composer Justin Sullivan. Their name was taken form Oliver Cromwell's anti-royalist military force.
“There’s nothing I can tell you, that you don’t already know,” Justin Sullivan, as always, tells it the way it is, and the way it is with New Model Army right now sees them enjoying what seems to be an endless Indian Summer.
With a huge back catalogue of songs, Friday night at Rock City saw a varied and extensive twenty nine song set list from New Model Army, that had a sold out crowd singing along from the off.
One of the highlights of the winter season, alongside mince pies, mulled wine and the crisp icy-cold fresh air is the annual New Model Army London show. Upgraded to the Roundhouse last year for the covid delayed 40th anniversary
Supporting New Model Army (NMA) tonight were Zen Baseball Bat, a band I had met once before when they supported NMA over in Holmfirth, and I was keen to catch them again as I had been impressed with my initial encounter and they certainly did not disappoint tonight.
