About Me

MyGen Profile GeneratorRed Scare Crows are 4 punkers from "near Brighton". We're influenced by bands such as Fugazi, Refused, Capdown etc. Songs have political/social lyrics and we want to give a more positive message than "emo" and a more questioning message than everything else. We've played a number of gigs over the southcoast and we all have experience with previous bands.

We recorded a demo on 2nd Feb 2007 @ 811 Studios- you can listen to all the songs on here but if you want a free copy on CD please message us.

!!NEW VERSION OF THE DEMO CD IS NOW OUT, STILL FREE OF CHARGE! FOR A COPY MESSAGE US WITH YOUR ADRESS AND WE WILL SEND ONE FOR YOU!!
