Nevermind the Punk

From The Clash, The Buzzcocks and The Jam through to Nirvana, Green Day and Kings Of Leon (all number 1 artists btw), there's even some saxophone in there with Madness' "One Step Beyond", see, it's not just punk rock, don't be scared, there's all sorts. Been together for 18 months, with a set list of over 60 songs.

Who are we?

Ben - vocals and rhythm/lead guitar - front man with the legendary 'Sonic Goat' and chairman of the 'Diana Rigg Appreciation Society'
Carl - bass, backing vocals, sax - was on stage at Donnington 1988 with Bad News.
Roger - lead guitar - has played at the legendary CBGB's in New York.
Keith - drums - one time Wolfsbane drummer, he actually invented the rear view mirror, and hasn't looked back since.

"Punk covers? We've already got a local band that does that", we get this a lot, and we always say, OK, check out our Myspace version of The Buzzcocks' "Ever Fallen In Love..." and then theirs, ours is more exciting, AND, closer to the original. Lots of bands do covers, but add their own little bits in (or can't be bothered to learn what they should), we pride ourselves on sticking as close to the original as possible, because that's what people want to hear.
PLEASE NOTE WE DO NOT PLAY ANY S CLUB 7 SONGS.
Ha ha.
