Citizen Keyne are a 5 piece punk band from Milton Keynes.

After an advert in the local newspaper "The Citizen" in 2004 we got together because of a love of fast aggresive music with something to say and a mutual detest for the drivel that is dominating the airwaves at the moment. In the true spirit of 1977 we decided to pick up the instruments and have a go, after all theres no point moaning about something if you ain't got the balls to try and make a difference. So Citizen Keyne were born. We started with Sex Pistols covers but soon realised this would make us little more than a strange cabaret band so we decided to go it alone ( although there a still a few Pistols tracks in our set ) and in a fit of boredom at work John wrote the lyrics for our first 5 solo tracks.

Since then Citizen Keyne have gone from strength to strength, supporting bands such as Vice Squad, Sham 69, UK subs, Anti Nowhere League, The Warriors, The Sex Pistols Experience and many more. There was a change of lineup in early 2007, replacing original guitarist Andy with experienced axeman Floyd and with Floyd we recorded Citizen Keyne's debut album 'Ungreat Britain' and released it in January 2008 to rave reviews. .. .. Our songs reflect the way we feel and the issues that bother and annoy us, police corruption, pointless wars that have fuck all to do with us and of course the modern day menace that are the CHAVS !!!! .. ..
