A nice Stuntdog thank you to all that turned out and even more nice thanks to Minty, Debz and Marie-Claire for the pictures.
Stuntdog hail from Worcester, a small gloving town set in the shadow of the imposing Malvern Hills in mid-west Engalnd.
The band line up includes ex 'Cardiacs' tub hitter Dominic Luckman, the 'Mash Badley' duo of Charlie Thorley & Craig Wood and original members, Peter Jennings-Bates & Steven Wattison. The maniac 'Alabammer Billy' stops by to add noises from time to time too.
The first official Stuntdog release was 'Rock-O-Matic' in 2004. The album is a diverse collection of songs reflecting the bands numerous and varied interests in music. From the punchy 'Sixty Zippers' through to the very wrong 'Fez on a peg', Rock-O-Matic will steer you on a noise journey that will make you laugh, cry, jump, rock your pants off and shout really loud. 'Rock-O-Matic' was two years in the making, but Stuntdog have been recording for many years under different names and colourful cloaks. A new record will be available summer 2009.
Here is a brief album discography for the band.
1995- The Size of Vince's Hands.
1998- Honky 3.
2000- Invina Cassoon.
2004- Rock-O-Matic.

Report: August 2009 In the late 80's and mid 90's Seattle USA produced a music scene which took the world by storm. Years later music has gone full circle and NOW a new thriving music scene in the UNITED KINGDOM is Erupting.
I'm Nick J.Townsend of WEAK13, also an underground music journalist, columnist and radio show presenter. For the last 6 months bands and crowds are flocking to a place called Stourbridge in England. Venues there are opening doors to bands. Music engineers, promoters, small labels, Bands and music fans are going to Stourbridge. One of the next big nights there has LAST UNDER THE SUN, THE ROCKET DOLLS, MASTER WARBEAST & WPAPPED IN PLASTIC all playing at BASE STUDIOS on FRIDAY AUGUST 28TH. The venue can be found on www.basestudios1.co.uk I'll be there offering radioplay to bands that need it.
The radio show can be heard here http://www.basementsound.co.uk/radio/BSRadio.php I plug bands from Brazil, Portugal, Sweden, USA, Australia, UK. Get on the show and contact producer 'Murph' on team@basementsound.co.uk
I grew up with some of the best music in the world and 15 years later only now am I starting to hear original bands make good music again. The venues are now becoming full again. This may never happen again for another 15 years. Now is the time. People will decide what music will be popular in the S'bridge scene. Seattle had grunge. Which genre will get big first?
