The Molotovs
The Spiel
The Molotovs are a London-based teenage punk-rock trio formed around 2020, consisting of siblings Mathew Cartlidge (vocals/guitar), Issey Cartlidge (bass/vocals), and drummer Will. Known for their high-energy, mod-influenced sound and extensive gigging—over 500 shows before their 2025 debut—they have supported acts like the Sex Pistols and The Libertines.
