Fever Dream

Fever Dream were formed in London at the end of 2010, and played their first gig at a Christmas party which featured a cardboard cutout of Larry David. Their moniker is based on a short story by sci-fi author Ray Bradbury, and their sound is a sparse mixture of post-punk and shoegaze.

Fuzzbox

We've Got A Fuzzbox And We're Gonna Use It (shortened to Fuzzbox for the U.S. release of their first album) were an all-girl Birmingham, England based, punk-pop quartet that was loud, gaudy, and mildly controversial.
Founded in 1985, they initially fostered a raw amateurness to their playing style but later developed into a smoother, "sexier" look that still caused some controversy.
Their first release came in the spring of 1986, a double A sided single (with a blank B side) of "XX Sex" and "Rules And Regulations".

Loop

1) Loop was a South London band founded in 1986 by Robert Hampson and his then wife, Bex. Loop's sound was characterized by strong and influences in addition to the minimalist mayhem of The Stooges and MC5. Their songs were almost uniformly harsh and repetitive, with indecipherable vocals buried under layers of noisy guitar riffs and metronomic drumming. Some of the records featured covers of Suicide, The Pop Group and Can as bonus tracks.

Aias

Aias are Gaia, Laia and Miriam. Gaia sings and plays guitar. Laia sings and plays drums and Miriam sings and plays bass. And the three together they try to make songs for anyone else to sing. Pop with distortion, lots of "oooos" and vocal harmonies in in a cave with endless ceilings sung in their native Catalan (not Spanish, mind you!) Aias began as a birthday party band and by surprise ended up being a band for real, or at least that's their current intention.
