Following the rock radio triumph of ‘The Concrete We’re Trapped Within (It’s Yours)’ SB6 release their new single on September 28th. ‘Back 2 Skool’ is the second of what Kerrang! described as ‘street-level vignettes and snapshots of modern Britain’ to be lifted from the City of Thieves album and features the band’s distinctive mix of break-neck guitar riffs and dance sensibilities alongside a huge, call-to-arms chorus. To support the single, the group embark on a full UK tour across October with hot new signing’s to Sonic Boom Six’s own Rebel Alliance Recordings label The Skints in tow.

Here’s what the critics had to say about ‘City of Thieves’:
This is witty, vital and utterly infectious fare. KKKK - Kerrang!
It's smart, joyous music that has plenty to say and does so eloquently. 4/5 - Big Cheese
A hundred word analysis cannot do this album justice, so let's just say it's one f*cking excellent album and get on with out lives? Agreed? Agreed. 9/10 Rock Sound

Sonic Boom Six - New album ‘City of Thieves’ and tour!

Release new album ‘City of Thieves’ through Rebel Alliance Recordings on 20th April and announce full National Tour!

The cross-cultural soundclash of underground genres that is Sonic Boom Six is back again with the release of their third album. ‘City of Thieves’ follows the concept of a collection of songs that explore and examine life in a large UK city. Built on the bedrock of the band’s unique ska-core/hip-hop/jungle hybrid, SB6 adds dubstep, grime and even a touch of glam rock to the mix while still managing to shove the boundaries of punk.

4 - SB6Sat

The album combines a multitude of creative talents with the first class production duties of Peter Miles (The King Blues, The Steal), incredible artwork courtesy of Dan Mumford (Gallows, ADTR) and guest appearances from Al Rumjen (King Prawn, ADF), Robin Leitch (Random Hand) and more! SB6 delivering their indisputably unique style of Ska Punk with a snarling live edge, feel-good brass and sweet dub-beats throughout. ‘City of Thieves’ will be released on 20th April through the band’s own label Rebel Alliance Recordings.

With this authentic album release under their studded belts, SB6 hit the road on a UK tour. Catch them smashing their grimy vocals and killer instruments into every club, festival and bar they show at.
