The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing

The Men That Will Not Be Blamed for Nothing are an English punk band from London formed in 2008. Their name is a reference to the chalked graffiti discovered above a section of a blood-stained apron thought to have been discarded by Jack the Ripper as he fled the scene of Catherine Eddowes's murder. They describe themselves as "crusty punk meets Cockney sing-songs meets grindcore in the 1880s." Initially associated with the steampunk movement, they have since sought to broaden their sound and distance themselves from the tag, incorporating elements of death metal, hardcore punk, the new wave of British heavy metal, thrash, black metal, goth, stand up comedy and music hall. Their songs are usually set in the Victorian era but can often be read as allegory for the present day.
