Stricken is a female fronted metal band from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire in the UK. The band formed in 2001 playing their first gig in April of the same year. Since then the band has played in numerous venues around the UK including some of the more notorious venues such as: Rios Bradford, The Cockpit Leeds, The Roost Nottingham, The Falcon Lincoln, Limelight Crewe, The Music Box, Late room, Jabez Clegg & the Roadhouse Manchester etc
The band have played with the likes of MaryJane, MrShiraz, Dwell, Pin Pim, Khang, Nex, Grinn, The Sisters Of Murphy, Burden of Reality, Broken, Liquid Sky, Exoterik, Mexican Deathcap and many other talented UK bands.
Stricken is made up by; Matt Walker Drums, Mark Gunton Bass (member of The Sisters of Murphy), Mya Tinham Vocals (also Member of The Sisters of Murphy & Endorphin Machine), Jamie Hall Guitar and Simon Bowker Guitar & Synth.
Our first demo release was reviewed in Metal Hammer March 2002 Scoring 7/10 and earning us the position of demo of the month. Describing our sound as being distinctly like early Siouxsie And The Banshees the Mag went on to say 'With a shiveringly sultry voice, Mya lifts Stricken from mediocrity into something potentially startling'.
The band have gone on to do many things since that early review, working together to create our own unique sound. 'Stricken' have released several demos including the latest single, Save Your Words, which was made available this year as an appetiser for the Album Poison Letters (due out soon).
