The Cockblocks are no longer with us.

About Me

The Cockblocks were conceptualized in December, 2004 by Rai and Cohr, who soon met Clara, who introduced them to Xtina. They made a band. A drunk boy suggested they call themselves The Cockblocks. They Did. They played some shows, they practiced sometimes, and then then went on a brief hiatus, afterwhich they played two shows, practiced three times, and then got a new drummer, a mysterious Mr. Ben. Life was better, and so was the music. Until about six months later when the Cockblocks went through some confusing times. Maybe hormones were involved? Anyway, the band was growing and going through puberty and in the end managed to become a three piece, featuring the talents of Mr. Ben, Clarabelle, and Cohr. The three remaining 'blocks all mutually decided to follow their instincts and become a scrappier, more DIY, post riot grrlier, core-ier type of band and were insanely happy with their decision to do so. But terror struck again, leaving the band in shambles as a two piece. However, as the band continued to grow and develop a much thrashier sound, things began to look up again. Mr. Ben and Clarabelle, the two remaining Cockblocks, adopted James as a new bassist. So, the cockblocks, once a four piece sexy all girl punk-esque band, became a three piece female fronted thrashpunk band. And promptly broke up. be on the look out for future projects, james still plays bass for alleyway sex, and both james and ben make occaisional appearances in the mythical memberless folk cars. there are also rumblings of new groups rising from the ashes, but nothing official quite yet. peace, anarchy, and the chance to finally get laid.death to the cockblocks
