H.D.Q.

HDQ have been around for a few years now and in that time have developed into one of the UK's finest live bands as well as recording some killer tunes. Not surprisingly they have been criminally ignored by the "Music Press". Anyway thanks to Golly for answering the questions so enthusiasticaly. I suggest you see this band and buy the LP Sinking. Right, here goes! BTN: HDQ take a lot of inspiration from American hardcore, what would you say if I called you the English equivilant of Dag Nasty?

treasures

1. Treasure is the one-man sampling project of Hari Ashurst. The project was started in the not so hazy summer of 2009, the absence of hot weather and the predicted 'barbecue summer' forced many Brits to find summer abroad, Hari Ashurst decided to find it in his headphones. The process involved making weird and cool sounds, mostly using reverb and anything woozy, and writing the kind of chorus that Hall and Oates would have. http://www.myspace.com/treasuretheband

Jean Grey

Jean Grey is the secret identity of the X-Men member Phoenix, with special mutant fire powers. She is also one of the heaviest bands to ever come out of Oregon. Jean Grey hits your ass with the unnecessarily pissed-off brooding of Dead to Fall or Through The Eyes of The Dead but with the 2-step/mosh sensibilities of the likes of Bury Your Dead, while adding their own interjecting guitar lines and drum fills that seal their own style.
