Photos by Robert Georgeff – Established in 2005, Devon lefty roots-punks, Crazy Arm, didn’t know what they wanted to be when they grew up so decided to throw everything against the wall to see what stuck. The result is a creative, grizzly and sprawling mess of ‘60s protest song, post/hardcore, Americana, bluegrass, anarcho-punk and heartland rock’n’roll, combined with a grass-roots, anti-fascist slant.
The band have released four albums on Xtra Mile Recordings: ‘Born To Ruin’ in 2009 (‘Stunning’ Kerrang!), ‘Union City Breath’ in 2011 (‘A triumph from start to finish’ Punktastic), ‘The Southern Wild’ in 2013 (‘A glorious surprise’ R2), and ‘Dark Hands, Thunderbolts’ in 2021 (‘Staggeringly ambitious’ Classic Rock magazine). Each album has showcased a band at the top of their game and made them many fans around the globe.
