My Interests

Member Since: 6/8/2004
Band Website: wrongislandrecords.com
Band Members: COLLECTIVE :

Grrrl Friend
(www.myspace.com/grrrlfriend)
Founded by Wrong Island co-founder Duffy Wrong Island, Grrrl Friend is said to be mainly inspired by the occult, private parts, blood, psychedelicacies, diy, time travel, thug life, homoerotica/general erotica, conspiracies; vast in nature, activism, loud noize and soft ones. For fans of american indie underground, noize pop, and other wonderful lo-fi sounds.

HYMS
(www.myspace.com/hymsmusic)
HYMS combines tones and textures, creating soundscapes at unearthly volumes, redefining "Minimalist" music to a whole new definition. With influences such as Godflesh, Swans, KK Null, and others, HYMS sets the tone backgrounds for the most devastating music you'll ever hear.

Thread The Light
(www.myspace.com/threadthelight)
Drawing from a collection of influences, Thread The Light’s style is reminiscent of mid-90s melodic punk laced with the melancholy of indie rock. Thread The Light is one of the last true indie rock bands based in ’scene’-suffocated Long Island, New York.

Wrong Island Records is booked, produced, financed, created, destroyed, promoted, recorded and fucked completely by the Artists with passionate interest in the collaborative process, the name represents; D.I.Y. On & Off "Long" Island NY. This is a collective of DIY artists primarly from the Long Island area who create and play together and strive to create community events for other DIY artists looking to get down and get involved.
