Bad Influence of 2022
Andy Barding from AAA Records explained,

“And our goldie lookin’ disc for the Island’s Bad Influence of 2022 goes to Grade 2!
“Our friends from Ryde have had a sensational year – full of touring, recording and generally setting a rocket off under the global punk rock and oi scene.
“Their last album, Graveyard Island, was a bona-fide smash. And they’ve got a newie to follow in February.
“We’ll next see the boys in action at their tenth anniversary show in Ryde in February. That’ll be amazing. Then they’re off on tour with – woah – Rancid.
“As well as their own headlining action. Global ambassadors for our Island, they are.
“Keep it up chaps! And thanks Jack for popping in for a chat and to pick up your richly deserved Award this week!”
