"You'll never want to see another bloody blues band again" Matt, Bristol Rock

Beware There is a sinister tide of middle-of-the road soft rock creeping into our lives. Its on your radio, its on your car stereo, its in your favourite live music venue.

Beamed in from outer-space by an evil coalition of control-mad governments and powerful businesses, this music is designed to rot your mind and invade your thought processes, leaving you in a mental strait-jacket unable to reason for yourself or exercise your free will.

Now is the time to Start! the fight back. Join us in our last ditch attempt to save Earth using humbucker pickups and amps that go up to eleven. Our gigs are designed to generate the energy needed to defeat soft rock. The more people that attend the better our chance of saving the people of Earth from a fate worse than death.

Are you brave enough to join the resistance?
