About Me

"Sporadic Slaughter are a five-piece from the town of Rotherham, South Yorkshire, UK. The band formed (originally as a four-piece) in summer 2004 and since that time, the quintet have been writing material and honing their skills while gigging on the local circuit. After a short break mid-2007 the guys are back in 2008 with new material and a new EP." They also all love the kfc with a passion and their hunger for the colonel's meat is everlasting.

"The five members each draw from a myriad of influences; mixing a concoction of death, thrash, doom and old-school metal into expertly crafted songs that feature pounding grooves, intricate instrumentals, grinding riffs and gutteral vocals. Awesome." ~James Brown~.

"I find the band's music so uplifting. Sometimes I just lay awake at night wearing nought but a bathrobe, listening to Sporadic Slaughter." ~Sir Cliff Richard~
