   About The Ballistics
The Ballistics formed in November 2002. Since then they have eaten plenty of pizza and drunk many beers. They wrote a whole bunch of ska songs in between eating and drinking, and people seemed to like them. Weird! According to the almost legendary Kate Blamires, they're like "a more mature, suited and booted version of blazin squad." Nice. They've played all over the UK, with the likes of The Beat, The Selecter, Neville Staples (The Specials), The Big, Dead Pets, The Vibrators, The Damned and plenty more. In 2005 the band released their debut album, 'Allow Me To Demonstrate'. This was followed in 2006 by a second album, 'The Spirit Of Kelso Cochrane'. The Ballistics are currently writing material for their 'difficult third album'.
