Band Members:
Special Thanks to Leemun for this awesome myspace page, all artwork and generally bonkers ideas.lol!!!

Influences: We emulate no one
We strive to make music we love and hopefully that passion will explode on stage for you so.....
We'll let you decide who our influences are.
Sounds Like:
"Highly inventive rock with a Blood Bros-worshipping, warped sense of melody and tension - creating sexiness with raw power, and creating a sound that sweeps you along for the ride with it’s devilish intensity and explosive delivery" Subba-culture.com
"Brilliantly hyperactive and highly unpredictable at its every turn, Pressure Points bursts out of the blocks with its unruly guitars,it combines everything that makes this band so exciting with its odd time changes, schizophrenic guitars and melodies that truly showcases singer Jed's vocal agility to its full extent" Rock midgets
"Jagged, angular verses roll into smooth-but-ferocious anthemic choruses, a-la At The Drive-In.Frantically melodic guitar is juxtaposed against a backdrop of purposefully awkward rhythms. It tears along at a breathtaking pace and is executed competently" Alternative nation
"the band have got themselves a really good sound that is full of energy, stand out vocals and hooks that your not going to forget in a hurry" Alternative vision
"Playing quirky fast paced pop, GOC with its change of pace and melodies it is for the more intelligent amongst us.Jed on vocals has a distinctive style that injects melody into this while the beats keep the energy going" Rock3 music
Record Label:
Type of Label: Indie
