Simon was previously in both Nefilim and Fields of the Nephilim line-ups, as well as together with Bob in Sensorium. For live gigs they bring in two extra guitarists, Chris Milden and Steve Carey.

Fear Of Comedy

Fear of Comedy can be likened to the outlaw, who steps menacingly through the doors of the saloon to the awed silence and stares of its patrons, who are not sure who he is or what he's doing, but are certain he's about to cause trouble. "The aim of Fear of Comedy is to take over the world" – Laith Tyranny, vocals. Not content with what God has created Fear of Comedy toil and experiment to gestate their own musical hybrids which are at once strange and infectious.
