Penguin may refer to two artists: 1. Penguin is a one man project and has delivered one demo album 'Spectrum Trick'. The style is extremely experimental incorporating elements of Psychedelia, Black Metal and Techno. 2. Penguin are a group of rascals playing some sort of alternative mix of post punk, razor blade guitars and funky riffs.
After becoming disillusioned with their hometown of Leeds and its fame-obsessed music scene (particularly following the mainstream success of fame-chasers The Kaiser Chiefs), The Despondents formed in the summer of 2006. Taking their cues from punk bands past and present their aim is to bring us short sharp garage punk tunes that hit you like an atom bomb. And boy do they deliver. Shuddering basslines, screeching guitars, insane vocals and a drummer who makes Keith Moon seem like a choirboy! Each song is filled with its own self belief and expectation.
Polecats was a rockabilly revival band in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The band formed in 1977. The original line-up was Tim Worman (a.k.a Tim Polecat, vocalist), Martin "Boz" Boorer, (guitarist and vocalist, later of Morrissey's band), Phil Bloomberg (bassist), and Chris Hawkes (drummer), and originally played under the name "Cult Heroes." Finding difficulty persuading promoters to book them on the Rockabilly circuit with a name sounding "too punk", they adopted Hawkes' suggested band name The Polecats.
