On August 7, 2020, the band released their debut album, We Live Here. Bob Vylan then toured supporting The Offspring and Biffy Clyro and performed at the Reading and Leeds Festivals in 2021.

Style


Bob Vylan combine grime rap with punk rock. Singer Bobbie Vylan grew up listening to rap, grime, punk and indie rock. After learning the guitar, he wanted to incorporate all of his influences into his music. The lyrics deal with social and political issues such as racism, police violence,[5] unequal income distribution, access to healthy food[6] gentrification, the influence of Hollywood on the working class and the influence of prescribed medicine on the population. The American magazine Alternative Press recommended Bob Vylan for fans of Idles, Fever 333 and Turnstile.[7] Ian Winwood from UK magazine Kerrang! called Bob Vylan the most exciting and important punk band in the United Kingdom in 2022.[8]
