Generation Vex: Illegally Punk
When your frontman’s a poet with a vendetta, your drummer negotiates with crisps, and your roadie’s mum books you for a church hall fundraiser between a bell-ringing troupe and the vicar’s holiday slides, “making it” looks a bit different.
Meet Generation Vex: four punk misfits armed with cheap guitars, too many opinions, and a fierce loyalty to each other (and occasionally, to ferrets). Between dodgy gigs, DIY recordings, and the looming arrival of a sketchy record label rep, the band is on the brink: of stardom, collapse, or, most likely, a poorly planned riot.
But when your own dad thinks your dreams are a joke and your only fans wear cardigans and carry raffle tickets, what does it mean to stay loud, stay weird, and stay you?
Explosively funny, unexpectedly tender, and crackling with British wit, Illegally Punk is a love letter to late-night rehearsals, found family, 1980s punk, and making noise when the world wants you quiet.
