Two down on their luck hit-men meet in a cantina just south of Tiajana. Both have been sent to kill rival drug lords. Realizing theyre both on unwitting suicide missions they decide to start a band. A drummer and vocalist are found during a fight over a parking space. Their first gig is for the locals of Santa Maria del la Vacas de Ora, who every year celebrate the Virgin Mary turning a cow into gold.
THE SHOW IS A HIT, literally. Everyone was killed but this story inspired 4 local habitual offenders to turn their back on a life of petty crime and forge a life in the world of showbiz. Gareth - vocals and debt collecting, Nick - guitar and credit card fraud, Laurence - bass and identity theft and Russell - drums and feng shui.
When the term criminally negligent was first coined nobody thought you could put a pumping beat underneath it, thrash a guitar over it and coat it in screaming vocals.
Their name GENTLEMEN of DISTORTED SOUND comes from the 1977 Melville classic Les Messieurs de Bruit Tordu a film noir masterpiece. It was the one piece of evidence strongly linking the band to a particularly ingenious casino robbery. No charges were proved. And the film remains an all time favourite with band.
