This sampler includes four Spanish bands from different regions in the North half of the country. Two of them come from Celtic regions (Galicia and Asturias) and the others from the Basque and Catalonian regions.

Bastards on Parade are a bagpipes-punk band from Galicia. Some of you are familiar with this band. Their EPs have been reviewed at Celtic-Rock.de, they have had some airplay at Paddy Rock Radio and they were also mentioned at the Shite'n'Onions message board when the 2008 Top 10 Celtic CDs were discussed. Till now they have released a couple of EPs and have played with bands such as The Mahones, The Dreadnoughts and Circle J. If you like DKM, Rancid and the Real McKenzies, you will enjoy Bastards on Parade.

"Pipes and Drunx" (5 tracks, 2008)
"Whiskey in My Heart" (4 tracks, 2008)

Both of them can be purchased from Fields of Athenry Records (athenryrecords@hotmail.com)

Sambre are from Asturias. They have included a couple of tracks in some compilations and will release their debut album soon. They are six members, including the piper. And they have recently played in a Celtic punk festival with The Dreadnoughts and Bastards on Parade.

The next band is Rhune, a Basque group from Irun (French border). Their folk-rock music has a similar approach to that of Celtas Cortos, but they don't like to hear that they are a Celtas Cortos wannabee band. This seven piece outfit has released two albums:

"Ilegal" (12 tracks, 2002)
"Frente al Espejo" ( 14 tracks, 2007)

Ebri Knight are a seven piece band from Catalonia. The band has released demos till now. All the tracks from the first demo are included in this sampler.

Enjoy!
