Stiff Little Fingers
Corona Theatre
October 29, 2016
2017 will mark the 40th anniversary of Ireland’s Stiff Little Fingers, and the band shows no signs of slowing down. Their latest album, 2014’s No Turning Back, was a crowd-funded affair that continued the band’s anthemic punk take on politics, and also reflected inward, tackling frontman Jake Burns’ fight with depression on “My Dark Places.” Songs from that album blended in seamlessly with classics like “Suspect Device” and “Alternative Ulster” at the band’s set at Corona Theatre, which is no easy feat for a punk band approaching their fourth consecutive decade of making music.
