Sounds Like
Reviewers have said we sound like this:
"..glossy, mental, ridiculous and oddly soothing. (4/5)"
(Big Cheese)
"Like early Yes albums being played at 78rpm by The Boomtown Rats, very cool"
(Brixton Windmill)
"Blasting out punk rock that gives your ears whiplash whilst indulging in gorgeous instrumental sequences that range from Duran Duran synth-cheese to Tool styled solo smuggery. "
(Blue Light District)
"..taking Guitar drenched alternative rock and giving it the explosive energy of The Blood Brothers... These guys can't sit still for one second, and when listening neither can you! Fusing the driving force of Dinosaur Jnr. with the sonic punch of Pavement...."
(Subba-Cultcha)
"An almost unfathomable fusion of Prince, The Bee Gees, Oscar Peterson and Motörhead"
(Wired)
"they sound like Sparks, Prince and the Cardiacs folded, torn apart then stuck together with gaffer tape (and also given heavier distortion pedals for Christmas...) "
(Black Sheep Bar, Croydon)
"As close to Cardiacs as possible without resorting to full on passport stealing and identity theft"
(Vanity Project)
"a mash up of Nation Of Ulysses or Make Up, Primus, NoMeansNo and the Dead Kennedys"
(Punknews)
"distil the essences of The Banana Splits, The Slits and the great, lost English thrashers English Dogs into a pot that's framed by the attitude of any one of a hundred inept late 70's New Wave also-rans"
(Logo Magazine)
"like a cross between Primus, The Presidents of The USA and a dodgy b-movie and to top it off the ending reminds me of the Muppet Show band... slightly irratic"
(Die Shellsuit, Die!)
Inventors of the Croydon 'Pronk' sound, mixing pop, punk and prog in one hefty stewpot.
Best known for their 'event' live performances.
Often mistaken for a comedy band.

Hi guys, don't forget next Tuesday 30th June sees the almighty DEATH ANGEL and KATAKLYSM playing live @ SEVEN with KEEP OF KALESSIN
We will be doing an aftershow party with the Total Annihilation DJs in the bar downstairs for those who don't want the night to end- so stick around and see if you can spot anybody interesting! ;)
SEVEN has some pretty good stuff coming up over the next couple of weeks with the best of up-and-coming talent both locally and nationally. Take a gander below- something might just take your fancy...
Feel free to drop us a comment or a message... it's what we live for, innit.
I'll be playing a full headline set comprised of Persad originals with my new backing band. Support comes from the bequiffed Church of the Drive Thru Elvis and the mighty Lucky Face. The Duke of Catford will be DJing by royal appointment. Be there!
And if that's not your cup of tea, how about a UK exclusive show with Tyla and The Dogs D'amour on Saturday 6th June, as part of the UKs' premier sleaze & glam clubnight Wildside's 6th birthday celebrations!
Please note, this is NOT a solo or acoustic show, but a full electric set featuring all their classic songs!
Support from Silverjet, Union X & Dead Sensation!
Then not only one, but two clubnights until the early hours- Wildside and Maximum Overdrive!
