Paraffin [GIG! + NEW TRACKS!]

About Me

Paraffin formed in January of 2005. After our first gig in August at the Barfly we recorded our first demo in September 2005. We have been gigging regularly now and are loving every bit of it! We are a dumbartonshire based band (Steven and Rob in tullichewan, Ryan in Jamestown, Craig S in Renton and Craig T in Bonhill) who play Metal/Progresive/Thrash music. We have recorded three demos now. Plus! A few tracks from our new EP that we've just finnished in October. So have a listen see if ya can handle it!
