Spraynard
The self-proclaimed "demi-gods of horror-core", taking cues from Danzig, ABBA, and Blessid Union of Souls. Though they claim to support many progressive social causes, Pat was recently seen at an rally supporting the Iraq war. In his defense, Pat said that he "thinks it's time for the United States to rise as a true global power, and I don't think that it's wrong to be patriotic". This coupled with the fact that Dos keeps shaving his head has led many to assume that Spraynard is now a nationalist skinhead band.

The Highliners
This Bio is Originally written by Simon Nott of Big Cheese Magazine. Taken from The Highliners album Bound For Glory / Spank-o-Matic PSYCHO55 .
It was edited & updated by Russ Surfer.
Legend has it that Luke Morgan (Vocals) and Chris Finch (Sax) started kicking around the
idea of The Highliners way back in 1982. Soon to be joined by ‘Stretch’ on bass and Tim Potter on drums. None of them were all that adept at their chosen instruments, but they did have a 1964 VW camper van...

Griswalds
KINGS OF LONDON POP PUNK the GRISWALDS are one of the few surviving mid 90’s UK pop punk bands . Three Ramones worshipping teenage losers, Ben Nuthink (vocals, bass), Steve Legend (vocals, guitar) and Paul Spazm (vocals, drums) got together in the summer of 1995. We each bought our first instruments the Christmas before and began writing songs about horror and sci-fi movies, drinking and our extensive bad luck and limited good luck with girls.

The Go-Katz
The Go-Katz were originally formed as a five piece band in 1986. Howard Raucous (v), Giles "Beaker" Brett (g), Mark "Moff" Moffat (b), Andy Young (g) and Johnny "Wolf" Basford (d) decided to form The Go-Katz after they met in a bar in Loughborough, UK. Because the band wasn't a big factor in the London Psychobilly circuit at that time, Howard decided to release their first EP on his own. Howard´s "Raucous Records" had already started as a mail-order service, and so a new record label was born. In 1988, they continued without the rhythm guitar of Giles Brett and Dave replaced Wolf on drums.

The Ricochets
The Ricochets were one of the first wave of Psychobilly bands, springing forth from the Rockabilly scene. Their drummer and bassist both played in the Guana Batz later on, and the drummer also played with The Meteors and The Highliners. Classic early Psychobilly,lots of tracks.
The Ricochets started out as the backing band for Marney Webb (look out for his 'Still searchin' - a great track), and were originally known as 'Pink And Black'. They were a pretty average covers band in the beginning, but a girl that hung around with them had some cool ideas.
