City of Thieves

"City of Thieves" is the third full-length album released 4th May 2009 by Manchester, UK-based Sonic Boom Six, and the fifth record to be released on their own Rebel Alliance Recordings. Whilst SB6's eclectic punk soundclash staunchly remains far too down-to-earth to ever being described as 'prog', the album follows the concept of a collection of songs that explore and examine life in a large UK city. From crass consumerism to traffic congestion, lawless youth culture to homelessness, binge drinking to street violence, Laila and the guys cast their pragmatic critique on the state of the nation, embellished by their characteristic positivity and humour. In 2011 a UK CD version was released featuring four extra tracks.
