  • SOFT PLAY (formerly known as Slaves) are back. With new singles 'Punk's Dead', 'Mirror Muscles', 'Act Violently', 'Everything And Nothing', and album 'Heavy Jelly' on the way, now is the perfect time to explore Isaac Holman and Laurie Vincent's punk outfit, formerly known as 'Slaves'. This documentary explores SOFT PLAY's rise; from their Mercury nominated debut album, 'Are You Satisfied?', to asking "why did Slaves change their name?".

      Thanks so much for subscribing! I'll have a look at Dead South but I think it's a bit out of my wheelhouse. I'm more about rock and indie rather than folk-bluegrass! 😊

    I really love these types of video essays on music. British bands are on another level for me, and I'm finally going to visit the UK this year! I hope to see as many bands I like as I can (I already have tickets for Soft Play in Norwich). Great video! Keep it up.

    Great video! Would honestly be even better if you could actually put some samples of their music in there, but I suppose that might get your channel striked or smth

    Great video. Nice history (I learned some things from watching). Look forward to watching more. Although, I do have to point out the irony (maybe) of mentioning the Sex Pistols in that sense. Just in relation to the lyrics from the end of "Punk's dead": And to think I believed a ll that shit that you said
    Johnny Rotten is turning in his bed
    I was gonna say grave, but the fucker ain't dead. Not too sure if they're making fun of him or not (I thought they were). You know, since the whole butter commercial, and MAGA t-shit pictures. Either that, or I guess they're saying punk is dead in relation to John Lydon's idiocy. Sorry for my formatting, I obviously don't know how to properly format TH-cam comments.
