The Filthy Tongues

The Filthy Tongues play PJ Molloys, Dunfermline on Saturday 25 October.

Martin Metcalfe, Derek Kelly and Fin Wilson boast a legacy unmatched by any of their peers in the Scottish post-punk movement. As The Filthy Tongues they may have released four albums in the last decade, but it was the first of those, Jacob’s Ladder in 2016, that proved a game-changer for the trio whose legacy can be traced back to 1981 and cult Bathgate indie-rockers, Goodbye Mr Mackenzie.

Over more than four decades, frontman, Metcalfe, drummer Kelly and bassist Wilson have provided the foundations of both bands as well as those of the short-lived alternative rock group Angelfish, fronted by Shirley Manson, now of Garbage fame, and Isa and the Filthy Tongues, fronted by Stacy Chavis. All are ventures that assured The Filthy Tongues a fine pedigree.
