Bio
.. ...... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. Formed autumn 2002 in London. ..Seamus.. and ..Reverend Al.. had played together in various bands since 1994. The last of these, ..Evil Knievel.., fell apart but not before heavy hitting Barrow-in-Furness born drummer ..Klaus Von Liksmeinschaft".. (..Suthy.. to his mates) was recruited. South African born singer ..Warren.. had moved to the UK originally with the aim of doing something with his then band ..Blind... It didn't go to plan but then, thanks to a mutual friend, he met the ..Reverend.. and thus the ..Blood Island Raiders.. were born. .. Since debuting in December '02 the band have played with the cream of heavy music, including; ..Alabama Thunderpussy.., ..Cathedral.., ..Brant Bjork.. and ..Nick Oliveiri.., ..Grand Magus.., ..Electric Wizard.., ..High On Fire.., ..Orange Goblin.., ..Dukes of Nothing.., ..GWAR.., ..Bongzilla.., ..Witchcraft.., ..Volition.., ..Mastodon..... to name but a few... To date they have released a self produced EP .."For the Sake of Clarity"..; A limited edition split 12" with ..Among The Missing.. titled .."Blessed are the Dead".. (only 300 on red vinyl) ; A CD re-issue of .."Blessed are the Dead".. with extra live tracks from both bands. They also had an exclusive track featured on the cover mounted CD of the Xmas 2005 edition of ..Terrorizer.. Magazine (No. 139). .. In 2006 the band were approached by Bristol based indie label ..Invada Records.., and they completed their first full length for them, which came out in summer 2007. .. In late February 2007 ..Seamus.. decided to pursue other avenues, and the ..Raiders.., after much hit and miss, finally found a full time replacement in the shape of ..Tjay... By all accounts he is the perfect man for the job..... ..======================================.... ..Special Request:.... ..Please do not use the comments section to post your gig info, that is what your page and the bulletin section is for. Gig postings will be removed, but the band will still be your friend... Maybe!.... ....N.S.F.L.T.M..... -
