SPAYED

lyrics with no sense.
tortured angst.
broken strings.
underground mind.
throated fury not-so blues sound.
SPAYED could go from catchy blues scales to real throated fury grunge in a measure or less. no one, not any of the hundred other alternative bands out there has the ability to get to that unique climax. you want a true alternative band? here you have it. SPAYED is more likely to release songs on tape or vinyl than cd format.

Take the Fifth

Take the Fifth started out as a 3 piece pop-punk band in Richmond, North Yorkshire in the late 1990s consisting of John Poffley, John Holburn, and Andrew Forbes. Playing local gigs and shows for a few years, TT5TH reshuffled their line up and added a fourth member, Simon Hall.

One Car Pile-Up

One Car Pile-Up is a United Kingdom melodic punk band which formed in the Scunthorpe area in 1996. Chris Lonsdale was the bassist in local band Gan at the time, and approached Wes Wasley to form a new band. They wrote songs at Wes' house while thinking about other people to complete the line-up. Chris brought along Dave Clarke who was the singer in Gan and so the search was on for a drummer. After trying a couple of local people it was obvious they needed someone who could play fast, and Wes suggested Robin 'Towie' Tow who used to play in Mental Seizure with him...
