   About RUBIK
Every hardcore nut must be de-kernalised before it can truly rock again...hence the reformation in February 2005 of West Sussex brothers Ollie and Ben (formally of Lockdown Project). They are back, hungrier than ever and on course to complete their original mission...to rock
After almost eleven years on the road supporting various well known and not so well known artists, playing in venues that range from real dives and pubs all the way up to stadiums and arenas across Europe, Ben and Ollie decided it was time for a re-think. Sitting back for a while, things went a bit quiet, Ollie went back to cooking pies and Ben went off to start a kung fu school, is this really what they wanted to do? Answerno! they knew their music career was not over, a gut feeling that told them not to let go of their dreams. So, it was back to the drawing board, back to basics, back to playing the style of music they love, the style of music that got them into this game in the first place.
As they perfected the Rubik sound, Shane was recruited to this arsenal in April 2005, a guitarist from Hertfordshire who was well known in that area for his skills, such skills that would put any guitarist to the test.
In September 2005 the arrival of Gid on bass guitar completed the line-up, the final piece of the puzzle was in place, Rubik was born. An alternative rock band blending solid beats, driving bass lines, in ya face surging guitar riffs with infectious heart felt melodies poured over the top. This is something very fresh and unique indeed. Influences range, from underground hardcore/punk to mainstream pop, this due to the vast musical taste of each band member.
To get the full picture, watching a live Rubik show is a must see, the power, the energy and the professionalism the band give out is hypnotic, so at ease with their surroundings, as if the stage was their birthplace. When they finish they leave the crowd begging for more.
There are no barriers.

All the girls out there are totally lying when they tell you that size does not matter. Want proof?
I am telling you this because it is the honest truth, look I should know, they say that it is all in the way you use it, not how big it is, well I got news for you all, that is pure lies.
I know from personal experience, I will tell you about a secret that Joey has made me promise to never ever tell anyone, but since he has not called me in three weeks after standing me up, I am going to break the promise and tell you how he went from having a tiny wang and in 4 months he is now about nine inches and get this, it is still getting bigger. He has been secretly taking grow pills from this site, copy and paste the address into your browser to see them. FSMEN.COM
I found out when I was at his house, three fridays ago, we were getting ready to go to the mall, so while he was in the shower, I went in his room, sneeked under his bed and found a box with pill bottles in it, there was like 9 full bottles and 4 empty ones, all ordered from FSMEN.COM I was laughing at first but then when he came in the room and caught me looking at them, he freaked out and made me sware to not ever tell anyone about them, especially girls from school or work that he has been dating for the past while, now that I think of it, he has been rather busy with all the popular girls around here, when just last year he was the shyest when it came to girls.
I just never put two and two together until he explained it all to me, I did see his prick and yes, it is huge, pronostar huge, the thickest and longest one I ever seen.
I know this sounds really shallow, but I am considering ordering 6 bottles from the website at FSMEN.COM for you know who.. he does not have a myspace account, so he is not gonna see this. They guarentee that the pills will work on any man, or they give you your money back, living proof that they do work on any guy, seeing is believing. FSMEN.COM
