Listen to Shame in session for Annie Mac on Radio 1

Shame are releasing their debut album ‘Songs Of Praise’ a week today (12th January), and dropped into the Maida Vale studios last night (4th January) for a Radio 1 session with Annie Mac.

The South London punks played a pair of tracks from the debut - recent singles ‘Concrete’ and ‘One Rizla’ - as well as sharing a ridiculous but rather fantastic cover of ‘Rock Lobster’. It also included a little snippet of ‘Stairway To Heaven’. “Stairway to lobster,” as vocalist Charlie Steen put it.
