The Band: We really can't place a particular style, it would probably have to come under the umbrella of Stoner Rock, but we just kinda write whatever and if it sounds good we keep it... We've done some great gigs and some less than great gigs, I think its purely governed by the alcohol intake before hand! We've played a fair few gigs in Lancaster and recently played a blinding gig in Sheffield. The future of the band is a bit unsure at the mo as we may be loosing a drummer to uni, so I guess we'll see what happens...But all we can do is keep doin what we love and playing as loud as possible with as many fat dirty riffs as we can...
