"On 11 January at 11:11 the band Pipes and Pints have introduced their second single in the new line-up called “Rebel in My Veins.” For the music video they have joined their forces with a pop-art artist Josef Rataj - Rataj Art, hoping to kick some butts. The message is that every artist’s got rebel blood in their veins, with the untamed desire to create and to shift the boundaries. The band compares the hiatus and the feelings around it to a cage and they are going to break that cage with the first shows in April in Prague and Brno.

Josef Rataj is a pop-art painter and artist, whose co-operation with Pipes and Pints is no coincidence. Upon returning from the United States, Josef received his first exhibition offer. He seized the chance and made the entire exhibition, 10 big canvas paintings, overnight with the only companion in his studio that night - a Pipes and Pints CD stuck in his stereo. And the works from that exhibition are the ones that kickstarted his career.

Pipes and Pints have met Rataj completely by accident in November 2017, in an attic studio of the alternative venue Drive House at the release party of their second last music video "Raise Our Flag". The video was being screened, guitars were played and Josef would paint in his attic studio as it all was taking place. “We've only exchanged a few words that night, the story spoke for itself. It was clear that we had to do something together,” says Vojta Kalina, the band’s bagpiper.

„What can I imagine in my mind it has happened. My positive thinking has changed my life into what I always wanted to do. These happenings sometimes do not have sense but everything goes to given goal. The heart is compass. When we come together it was like a synchronization, ” says Josef Rataj.

„Art is an energy, a mixture of colours, sounds, and feelings, and we want to pass it all on in this music video. Josef also has this energy around himself when he paints, not unlike the one that we have while playing, it’s omnipresent,” says Vojta. “And without anyone even realising it, Travis’s lyrics are about tattoos, painting on human bodies and the memories that we carry.” "Rebel in My Veins" is the first song that the band has composed after the hiatus. Energy and the joy of creating is overflowing in this song.

The cage, about to unleash the boys into a new concert era, is going to break at the first shows in Brno and Prague. “We wanted something special to mark the occasion. I have always wanted to play Sono Centre in Brno ever since the venue opened with a magical concert of several Dire Straits members. And Pragovka in Prague is the venue we picked for its magical industrial atmosphere, to which our live wildness will fit perfectly. Even this video was shot in one of its halls, it all clicks together amazingly,” adds Vojta on the location selection."

REVIEW - PIPES AND PINTS "Found and Lost" (2012)

Pipes and Pints - "Found & Lost" People Like You Records 0PLY00543
Release date: November 5, 2012
Runnin time: 34:13, 11 tracks

At last! This album was at the top of my wish list and finally it has been released. I have been following Pipes and Pipes before starting this e-zine. Besides, their first recordings were the second free downloads at Celtic Folk Punk and More and their debut album was the first CD to be reviewed here. Therefore, I was eager to hear “Found & Lost”.

Their tour schedule has been as busy as The Real McKenzies' and fans all over Europe have enjoyed their incendiary shows. Everybody was waiting for their sophomore album in 2012, but it has been released now, at the end of 2012. That is, three years later than “Until We Die”. Was it worth the wait? Yes, of course.

Pipes and Pints  have evolved in the right direction. They were aware that they have to go forward and then they hired producer Darian Rundall (Pennywise, US Bombs) to help them.  As a result, “Found & Lost” is a strong release with a superb sound. The vocals are more powerful, the bass lines are clearer in the right moments and the background vocals are more important (Hey Ho on “One Connection”, NaNaNaNa on “Run Away”, Uoooooh on “Her Life”, “Blackhearted Doubts” and “Warpath 82” …). Perhaps the pipes should be a little bit louder on some tracks, but, as a whole, the sound is awesome.

But there are other kick-ass things on “Lost & Found”, like those R’n’R from the 50’s parts on tracks like “Never Let You Down” and “Right or Wrong”.  The band has been labeled as the European/Czech Dropkick Murphys. So if you look for Dropkick Murphys influences or similarities, stop wasting your time. Maybe the disc opener is a little bit DKM, but if you listen carefully to all the tracks on “Found & Lost” you will find a great deal of Clash and Rancid influences.

My faves: “Never Let you Down” (I guess that the guys were listening to The Clash rendition of “I Fought the Law” when they wrote this number), the disc opener “She’s the One" (No, it’s not a Ramones cover, but the most Celtic number on the album), “Run Away” (the catchiest song), “Found & Lost” (this time they were listening to The Clash “Garageland”) and “Her Life”. 

Pipes and Pints have been usually compared to Dropkick Murphys. Moreover, there is a sticker on the album saying “for fans of The Real McKenzies, Dropkick Murphys and Flogging Molly” . These comparisons are useful for marketing purposes, but they are not really true. Pipes and Pints are closer to Real McKenzies than to Dropkick Murphys both in attitude and sound. In fact both of them are more “Californian” than DKM, but they are following separate musical ways. Pipes and Pints Californian music is different from that of The Real McKenzies and Pipes and Pints are not so Scottish, even if Vojta plays the Highland pipes.

Pipes and Pints don’t need comparisons. They have their own identity and they are an essential band on the Celtic/Bagpipes punk scene. They are loved by fans, critics and their colleagues from other bands. Just have a look to the pictures at the bottom, David from Bastards on Parade wearing a Pipes and Pints T-shirt and Aaron from Drink Hunters wearing a Pipes and Pints T-shirt.

NEWS - PIPES AND PIPES SECOND ALBUM OUT IN 2012

Pipes and Pints are working on new album with Darian Rundall

Two and a half years after the release of debut, full-length album, Pipes and Pints, with original lineup intact, are going back to the studio once again to record new material composed since then. Band are going to release 10 to 12 tracks carefully chosen from all the songs we have ready.

The recording session is scheduled for three upcoming weeks in April at Sun Studio with engineer Michal Senbauer. As producer and mix-master, his first time in the Czech Republic, we have Darian Rundall from the US working with us. Darian is a close associate of such labels as Epitaph and Hellcat Records and he has worked with bands like Pennywise, US Bombs, Suicidal Tendencies, and many more.

Darian is going to stay in Prague to spend a few pre-production days with us and observe the recording sessions at Biotech. Mixing will be finished back at his home studio in California, with online conference calls with the band. As a result of this cooperation, the band expects some major progress in the sound quality of the new record and also in the sound at live shows.

The release is scheduled for October 2012 followed by a week tour through the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Germany, Switzerland, Poland, and Austria. And a month long tour through Western Europe. During the summer festival season 2012 the band is going to release some singles from the record at chosen festivals. These will also be available to hear at online streaming services and for purchase and download at iTunes.

PIPES AND PINTS BACK ON STAGE

Pipes and Pints back on stage and ready to get on the road with the Mighty Božkov Tour 2012

Pipes and Pints, a successful Czech punk rock band that took a break earlier this year, are getting back on stage. In celebration of their comeback, the band will play Prague’s Lucerna Music Bar on the 2^nd of February. This concert will kick off the Mighty Božkov Tour, a string of concerts taking place in Czech ski resorts, the first half of which will be headlined by Pipes and Pints.

In February, Pipes and Pints will be back playing live shows after a break that lasted several months: "After much deliberation we all agreed we did not want to throw away what we have achieved together. We came to the decision to continue in the original line-up" says Vojta, the band’s vocalist and bagpiper.

The grand return of the prodigal sons of punk rock at the Lucerna Music Bar will be supported by performances from two other bands. Receiving tumultuous ovations after their last show in the Czech Republic, the UK-based combo Buster Shuffle will deliver a playful mix of ska, rocksteady, and 2-tone. The night will begin with a performance by the winner of the Bandzone Showcase 2011 competition, a band called Wild Tides. Injecting a healthy dose of unruly fury into their shows, this band is sure to surprise with a Pulp Fiction-styled surf rock.

After the opening show in Prague, The Mighty Božkov Tour spring edition will rampage through Czech ski resorts. Other Czech bands, such as Fast Food Orchestra and The Spankers among others, will take their turns playing on the tour. More information on the Mighty Božkov Tour can be found at www.mightysounds.cz

PIPES AND PINTS - NEWS JUNE 2011

"Pipes and Pints signed at IHP Records, competition for a new singer and last festival summer in actual line-up.

Lets start with a good news. Despite the incomplete material we have ready for new record, we signet its future release with IHP Records (I Hate People). We are really excited about this and it is a big kick to finish it for us. For those who dont know, IHP is a record label owned by legendary punkrock patron Andre Bahr based in Germany and it is definitely a leading stable of the gener in Europe. Andre is a former founder of PLY Records (People Like You), where he disagreed, with other partners, about its future of which way should such label wend. We definitely have a same vision and we are rally looking forward the cooperation. Will keep you up about the record progress.

The bad news is that our current singer Mike decided to finish the festival season for next 3 months and than to leave the line-up. Main reason is that he cant find enough energy and passion for touring any more and also he got a long term homesick. Despite we are not happy at all about his decision and we tried everything to be able to move on with him, his decision is fully respected and we wish him good luck. Anyway situation like this is not new for us at all and we are definitely not going to slow down. Armed with many new songs to finish and full support of IHP Records we dartle in seek of new member, who would love to jump in Pipes and Pints express and to start with new touring, playing and songwriting with passion.

And thats why, Pipes and Pints proclaims competition for a new singer!

Is your English perfect or native, are you a lyricist, do you have a voice that is crushing angels wings and making rocks cry, music is everything to you and do you have some experiences behind you? Are you trying for ages to start a band that is touring the world and playing headline at great festivals over the Europe? Are you trying to get your music out at a label of a name that sounds? Having a band for life was all you always wanted to do but never had a chance? Or you already had one and lost it for any reason? Ideals of punk, GNWP and solidarity are not strange to you? Lets do this with us. We are offering loads of music and enthusiasm, equal share in the band, contract for a new record at IHP Records, tour and festival booking, rehearsal room and background at Prague, Czech Repuplic the heart of Europe. Are you dreaming now? We do as well! Send us something about your person and some reference to your past/present work (music, photos, videos) to pipesandpints@email.cz Looking forward to hear from you."

PIPES AND PINTS - ST. Patrick's Gigs

This is the info from London Celtic Punks about the London Gig:

"SAINT PATRICKS WEEKEND GIG!

Another Guinness and (Irish) whiskey fuelled night of celtic-punk on the Saturday after St Patricks Day. March 19th, with debut London show from Pipes and Pints from Prague in the Czech Republic...

"Pipes And Pints continue to combine Punk Rock and Rock 'n' Roll with dirty folk and are always looking for new ways to keep their music fresh. Brisk guitars, supported by the sometimes dreamy, sometimes raw ...sound of Highland Bagpipes, are complemented by the expressive performance of singer Syco Mike from San Diego"

And from the deep sarf of London its Drunken Balordi...

"Imagine if Joe Strummer and Shane McGowan were having a drink when they were joined by a band of Gypsy Folk musicians from the Balkans and in their inebriated state started jamming. Well imagine no more, the incarnation lives on in Drunken Balordi"

and opening the night, half from longford and half from london, with some noisy hardcore punk rock its Poisoned Legacy
think thats it...

The gig's at Mannions Prince Arthur and is Tottenhams premier Irish boozer and is only 5 minutes walk from Seven Sisters tube station on the Victoria line.(when you arrive at Seven Sisters tube follow the signs on the platform for the buses. When you leave the barriers check the signs again for Broad Lane and when you leave the station that's the road that runs alongside the Tesco. Mannions is just a wee walk and is painted green and cannot be missed)

Doors open at 8.bands at 9.open till 2 at least or maybe later, depends on the landlord!

Celtic-punk disco after the bands, playing anything Irish we can think of!

It's also guaranteed to be the cheapest pint you'll drink at a gig in ages!

Need to publicise this gig far and wide as we need a decent crowd to pay the bands a fair whack. Remember this all DIY so we make no money.All money goes to pay the PA and the bands.

So please forward it to anyone you think may be interested.
cheers.

Mark "
