Slaughterhook

About Me

In the mystical year of 2000, vocalist/guitarist Alan Costello and Xtreme metal guitarist Dave Miller decided they would form a band. They named this band the Sinning Saints, which was indeed a crap name. For three years this band chopped and changed members (and names), whilst not actually doing much and going through a great many members.In 2004, Slaughterhook played their first gig at the Falkirk Town Hall with Alan Martin on vocals, to an audience of approximately 150 people. Since that date, we have played numerous amounts of gigs getting paid.....and not.In the present, some things have changed. Apart from the obvious changes in members, our music has started to incorporate many different elements from a wide range of musical genres. From dance to classical, jazz and back, anything is fair game for Slaughterhook. So what will the future hold, you say? A certain grey, shiny substance, inserted far into your rectum.For more information on the band's non-existant touring and other information, e-mail us at [email protected]
