Formed in the coastal town of Clevedon, North Somerset in 1993, we have been playing our own take on skate punk for the last 14 years. Drawing on our influences ranging from Satanic Surfers, Face to Face, Bad Religion, Ramones, SNFU, Faith No More, Iron Maiden and Samiam, we’ve not been afraid to do what we do without giving a fuck about what’s in and what’s out and we’ve had this attitude since we started. The music is melodic, up beat and positive and at the same time can be extremely hard hitting. We have been lucky enough to play with some great bands including Strung Out, Ten Foot Pole, Snuff, Satanic Surfers, Mustard Plug, Kenisia, 4ft Fingers, Adequate 7, King Prawn, Shootin Goon, & Capdown. In addition to this we have undertaken loads of DIY tours throughout the UK and even in Norway in 2002 & Japan in 2001. We’re no longer on a label and to be honest, we prefer it this way as there is less hassle. Less bollocks more rock we say!

Well fuck I with a gert big stick. We’ve only gone and recorded some new stuff!! Yes, you read that right, we have just spent last weekend holed up in Andy’s "Music Box" Studio in sunny Somerset recording what will soon be known as the ’Ruins’ EP. We just need to put the finishing touches to it and we hope to preview 1 or 2 tracks very soon. The EP has no fixed release date as yet but we will update you all as soon as we get this finalised.
We are also honoured to be playing the Trailer Park Trash 9th Anniversary show at Hobgoblins in Bath on 29th March. West Country punk legends Far Cue will also be playing and no doubt some other really cool bands. We hope to see some of you there for what we’re sure will be a great night.
More news to follow...and so it goes on.
