Proudly defending against indie since 1952.

About Me



Marc and Danger began playing in a band called Random Occurrence before Jpop joined their ranks. It was after the sad split of Random Occurrence that Marc, Danger and Jpop began playing together. A side project consisting of Marc, Jpop, Jason and Daniel 'Prick' Benfield was born to which Danger was later added. The name was at this stage born when the lads reached puberty and discovered the wide possibilities of male genitalia. Daniel left in Februrary 2006 and the band now lives on stronger than ever. The members are multi-talented little buggers, possessing the ability to create music on their different instruments and with their voices to varying extents of success and greatness.
