***ROSE OF VICTORY originally was a studio collaboration between NEIL "MACKIE" MCLENNAN and NIGEL "NIDGE" MILLER Neil (1958-2007), both founding members the iconic UK Punk/Oi! band BLITZ. McLennan and Miller's post-Blitz project released one well-received 7" single on No Future Records in 1983, before fading into legend—until now. Teaming up with drummer GREG BOULTON (the VIOLATORS, SKINGRAFT, EPIC PROBLEM) and vocalists DAMIAN ABRAHAM (FUCKED UP) and TOBIAS GRAVE (SOFT KILL), Mackie has resurrected the ROSE OF VICTORY project, resulting in the "Full Circle" 7" single. The grittiness of Blitz runs headlong into the kind of Post-Punk melancholy that you can only find in Greater Manchester and the East Midlands, resulting in this wonderful record. Look for more releases from the reactivated Rose Of Victory project in the future. Edition of 400 copies on pink vinyl.
