About Me

THE FORMING OF ROUGHMUTE:
Roughmute are a 4-piece Punk band from Falkirk in Central Scotland. Cock & Plug formed Roughmute in the summer of 06’ after another band they had played in had just split up. After askin Treble to join they set out ti play stinkin fast noisey shite aswell as more ska & reggae influenced stuff.
As time went on, some cunt called Fatty ended up on drums. We had a few practises with him but eventually he stopped showing up and shit so we chucked him out the band and began looking for an other guy who liked bashing things. After a bit of searching for a drummer, a half-man, half-yeti came out from hiding, it went by the name of Cree(the hairy basturt)and loved ti play the drums and xbox. So Cree ended up oan the drums and that wis how it aw came aboot.
Once gettin aw 4 members of the band we then started ti practise more often and recorded oor first EP - "Feels Like Eatin A Jellyfish". It had 5 songs on it that were recorded in 2 days. We recorded it at Chime Studios in a really scummy part of Glasgow....the tiolet in the place wouldnt flush but everyone just pissed in it anyways so you had to hold your breath while takin a piss...you could smell it in the vocal booth bit tae. was gid...
So noo we’re just kicking aboot playing gigs, havin a gid time and writing new songs for our next CD that we’re hoping ti record pretty soon, so aye lookout for it and in the meantime get yersel doon ti oor gigs and find out for yourself how shite we are!

Sounds Like: Roughmute - Feels Like Eatin' A Jellyfish EP Review

"Roughmute are quite fucking brilliant, sir!

I've never wrote this in a review before because it always seems so insincere and flippant but…..this is my new favourite band! That accolade may now be the curse of their career, though I very much doubt it, or I might regret writing it in a few weeks time, but the point here is that this band have made a record that is worthy of me sticking my neck out and saying that! If the punk/skacore genre is your scene then get yourselves familiarised with this lot now!

Roughmute fluctuate between 100mph hardcore mayhem and the subtle yet instantly recognised jauntiness that Ska cloaked itself with. They've judged it well though and that becomes obvious on opening track ' Captain Cool'. The second song 'Poondalita' is excellent by anyone's standards! It's here that they blend two genres so amazingly well then further enhance the songs potential by gifting it with a chorus so anthemic it must surely be the favoured drunken chant upon the streets at chucking out time? 'The Choice' has harnessed the hardcore sound slightly, but you can still feel it straining at the leash. The Ska beat controls this song though and again it all sounds flawless and tight.

Penultimate track 'Stand Up And Fight' is inspired and it's positioning on this record is spot on because it gifts last song 'DSFT' with nothing more to do but remind you what a good time you had listening to this EP. Check Roughmute out and grab a copy of this record, it'll hold your attention for ages and you'll tell your mates. Guaranteed!"
