Biography
....
Established in mid 2006, ‘Life with Max’ are a south
coast based original female fronted Alternative Hard Rock Band, recently commented as sounding like ‘Kate Bush in a Metal Band’.
Their influences range from Machine Head, System of a Down, Blink 182, Green Day and Sum 41 to No Doubt, Pink and Gwen Stefani.
For most of 2007/2008 ‘Life with Max’ gained as much live experience as possible, gigging regularly at venues including; The Wedgewood Rooms, The Joiners, Drift Bar, Talking Heads, The Cellars and Havana Bar and gaining a reputation for energetic live performances and unpredictable changes from one song to the next.
However, for 2009 ‘Life with Max’ are back in the rehearsal room refining their sound by writing new material and improving the old and hoping to record along the way.
A recent track ‘No Compromise’ (recorded at Blacksmiths Studios, Portsmouth) is available on this site, so take it how you like and go easy on the salt (ouch!), cause Life with Max are ready to force feed you with their own brand of Guitar driven Alternative 'metal/punk corrupted’ Rock!

We used to be called "Mumrik" that was looking for a singer and now we finally found a singer and the band name became STM since we are working together at a distance of 6000miles from Leeds, UK to Kyoto, Japan. We have uploaded 3 songs now. Check out how it works.
Hi there) Thanks for being our friend! Download for free our new EP "Starring" - 1 song from it will be on FREAK drama soundtrack Welcome to our page!)) Cheers from Ukraine
Please can everyone text wildcard191 to 84222 and Get a Metal Band into the UK'S Live And Unsigned Final. Thanks to all please keep texting Cheers Black Acid Souls
I sent a mail to Drift but haven't heard anything back as yet, It would be cool for us 3 to play on the same bill together, we are playing with Pancake Eating Freaks at our gig in December be cool if you guys could make it down to see us then maybe we could sort a gig out between us all.
Hey! Just to say i saw you guys the other day at the joiners and thought you were fucking awesome :)
I was the girl who came and asked you for a cd then looked like a twat when they were on the stage :P But you're on my iPod already! Might see me at the talking heads...... Most likely!
