Extinction EP - OUT NOW

About Me

Extinction is here!Purchase it at SIMPLY MUSIC in Huntingdon, from band members, or purchase it below from our indie store.
Bio:
First Aid Boy began sometime in 2004 when its members were all 15/16, out of the complete necessity for all four members/friends to make music together. Song writing began, EP’s were recorded, shows were played in Peterborough and Cambridge, and the band grew up. Their sound now tight, energetic, electric and quirky, influences ranging from The Smashing Pumpkins to Modest Mouse and Jimmy Eat World. Not content to simply replicate the familiar four-piece rock band sound, the band’s sound keeps progressing to more diverse places and strays ever further from the curse of “emo” and “the scene”. First Aid Boy’s live shows continue to captivate audiences and convert new believers, with front man Nick’s unhinged and deranged performances, and the powerful punch delivered by the other members, lord only knows what’ll happen next. FAB have recorded 3 short records, the latest of which, "Extinction" was released August 24th, and is available from www.indiestore.co.uk/firstaidboy.
