About Me

Attack! Vipers! formed in February 2006 and we went on to play our first show just weeks later on the 16th March. We've tried to create more aggresssive songs than our previous outfits (Jets Vs Sharks, Seven Arrows In Your Bastard Heart, Thirst) while trying to maintain some level of structure & keeping the tunes memorable and trying to stay as true to our DIY punk background by playing communal spaces, living rooms & back rooms as well as venues which has seen us travel as high as Leeds and wide as Penryn/Exeter as well as a weeks long European tour, we have shared the stage with amongst others...The Hope Conspiracy, Bones Brigade, Suicide File, Stolen Bikes Ride Faster, Rainy Day Fuck Parade, D-Rail, Omerta, La Quiete, The Steal, Rise & Fall, The Mercury League, The Legacy, Hold Fast and scores more.
Our latest sonic opus "The Mirror And The Destroyer" is now available on Rat Patrol Records. We're really pleased with the album, which sounds awesome thanks to Captain Rich Tamblyn who recorded us and Alan Douches (Converge/Mastodon) @ West West Side who mastered it. The artwork was done by Dan Mumford , who has done recent work for Gallows, Suicide Silence and Architects amongst others, and we could not be more stoked with the finished article. As well as this there are still some copies of our debut 7" (gathering dust in someones basement no doubt) on Rat Patrol, and we have a previously unreleased track going on a Thirty Days Of Night compilation in the near future.
Our 1st 4 track 7" still available from Rat Patrol Records .

We're please to say that we're now sponsored by BMX Clothing label Faded Life. These chaps based in Hastings are putting out some sweet shirts & hoodies as well as looking out for some decent UK riders & band! Head over to Faded Life and order something!
