A combat sport, or fighting sport, is a competitive contact sport that usually involves one-on-one combat. In many combat sports, a contestant wins by scoring more points than the opponent or by disabling the opponent. Common combat sports include mixed martial arts, boxing, wrestling, fencing, savate, kickboxing, Muay Thai, Sanda, Tae Kwon Do, Capoeira, Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, HMB, Sambo, Kyokushin, and Kūdō, sometimes even Ninjutsu.

Album · 2018 · 11 Songs. After the pop direction of third album English Graffiti, The Vaccines return to their London rock ’n’ roll roots with taut riffs, shouty choruses and the fearless sense of fun that characterised their 2011 debut. Bright-eyed vocals and punchy guitar match the urgency of the songs’ lyrics- You can’t change me, can you? screams Justin Hayward-Young on the infectiously upbeat I Can’t Quit. Elsewhere, the raging Nightclub pulsates with nostalgia for student life, while the contemplative and romantic Maybe (Luck of the Draw) offers a brief but emotive slowing of pace.

On their excellent fourth album, Combat Sports, The Vaccines fall back into a familiar groove: exuberant, no-frills indie rock suitable for the dance floor and headlining festival slots. It worked for the Vaccines, and in that context, a reactionary record like Combat Sports is something of a disappointment.

Combat Sports is their shortest album yet, with none of its 11 tracks straying over four minutes, all in bursts of compact energy. Each song has a short guitar solo, while riffs and hooks abound, in stories of combative love and sex couched in Young’s characteristically wry lyrics.

Combat Sports’ has been a battle for The Vaccines: against internal strife – drummer Pete Robertson has departed since 2015’s third album ‘English Graffiti’ and Justin Young and guitarist Freddie Cowan were punching each other’s faces in on the last day of recording; against health and lifestyle issues (the new ‘nervous exhaustion’?) because, y’know, too much squash and life drawing ca. The mental, social and emotional combat going on in Young’s lyrics seeps into the sound; The Vaccines return battle-scarred but buoyant. It’s unfortunate that they still suffer under the widespread indie-rock delusion than any ‘new direction’ has to mean bunging in a bit of ’80s AOR synthrock, like the world’s still pining for Flashdance.
