Action Beat

The Noise Band From Bletchley

About Me

Action Beat are an improv noise/no-wave band which is often made up of musicians who are available to play the gig on any particular date. We sound quite like early sonic youth, Glenn Branca, Swans and Rhys Chatham. We normally have at least 4 guitarists, a bassist and between 1 and 4 drummers.--------------------------------------------------- ----------------...r ------------- NEW VIDEO FROM OVERTOOM 301 IN AMSTERDAM--------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------
