Formed in 1994, "Pants" are a vibrant up-and-coming band, from Portsmouth, UK. From 1995-1999, the "Pants" name achieved local fame in a rapid period primarily because many people had heard of the name, but no-one had really listened to them.
After playing relatively few gigs in and around the local area, and not really writing any lyrics, they decided it would be best to take a leave of absence, so in 2000 James and Ric pretty much ended their musical relationship.
Now 2006 heralds the start the new, improved "Pants"! James and Ric are now back and are starting work on a collection of new music, this time they plan on writing some lyrics too! Their new encompassing "munch" sound derives from a fresh mixture of grunge and catchy pop, merged with funky stuff.
Pants hope to get some material recorded as soon as possible, and will make some of this available through MySpace. Unfortunately, in the meantime you'll all have to make do with "Towrope 21" a rare and pretty crappy recording from a jam session in late 2004.
