Wayne, Gary and Pricey put together the band VOiD in their hometown of Llanelli in the late 00s, releasing three acclaimed albums under that name before deciding itwas time to shake things up. Changing their name to Scarlet Rebels, the original trio were soon joined by Chris Jones and Josh Townshend – the latter the nephew of The Who legend Pete Townshend. With \u003ci\u003eSee Through Blue\u003c\/i\u003e, Scarlet Rebels have delivered on that promise. Few bands marry arena- sized modern anthems with classic songwriting with as much passion and skill as they do. Fewer still are brave and bold enough to tackle real- life political and social problems – especially when they’re as potentially divisive as the ones Scarlet Rebels are writing about.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Earache","offers":[{"title":"LP - Black","offer_id":50417682841931,"sku":"1141639","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/909bb23a-5ec2-43d9-9d45-eee16c6857a0_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726735033"},{"product_id":"where-the-colours-meet","title":"Where The Colours Meet","description":"\u003cp\u003eSouth Wales' Top 10 rockers Scarlet Rebels return with the follow-up to their #7 UK Top 40 Album \u003ci\u003eSee Through Blue\u003c\/i\u003e.

Diehards will spot that two songs from Scarlet Rebels’ live sets come to life too, as “Let Me In” and “Practice Run”, which have been fixtures at their concerts, are now heard on a proper studio recording for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWhere The Colours Meet\u003c\/i\u003e shows frontman Wayne Doyle displaying his raw emotions like never before.

In “How Much Is Enough”, “Divide and Conquer” and “Streets of Fire” Wayne’s lyrics become more strident, attacking business fat cats and government policies which have caused so much suffering to families in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaving already hoisted their flag into the UK Top 10 charts, Scarlet Rebels are poised to fire Welsh rock back into the mainstream spotlight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Earache","offers":[{"title":"LP - Orange","offer_id":50474338845003,"sku":"2195617","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"LP - Black","offer_id":50474338124107,"sku":"2195616","price":32.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50474335699275,"sku":"2195615","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Scarlet_Rebels_-_Where_The_Colours_Meet_822108c7_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727435804"},{"product_id":"flawed-by-design-1","title":"Flawed By Design","description":"\u003cp\u003eSometimes a little pressure can be a good thing.
