Band MembersPhotobucket

James uses Shure microphones and uses them in whichever mic stand he has yet to break.

Photobucket

Steven uses a Fender Jaguar HH and a Jackson Roswell Rhodes equipped with Bare Knuckle Pickups through a Marshall TSL100 stack combined with Marshall, Boss and Jim Dunlop pedals to give him a guitar tone that puts the X in Sex.

Photobucket

Greig uses a Fender Jazz Bass and a Warwick Streamer Standard through a Line 6 Lowdown 300 watt amp and a Line 6 bass floor podXT. This gives him a sound that is 60% more ballsy than other leading brands.

Photobucket

Stuart uses a Ludwig Accent Custom kit with Tama hardware and seat, a 15" Ludwig Custom snare, 21" Paste Signature ride, 2 x 18" Zildjian A Custom Projection crashes, and a Zildjian A Custom Projection hi-hat. This all makes for a fucking loud crash, boom, bang.

All of these Rock Awesome photos were taken by Colin Stebbing copyright 2009 www.barrengallery.com. Get him checked out!

InfluencesJames: "AC/DC, KISS, Aerosmith, Batman and the films of John Carpenter."

Stu: "Ghostbusters 2"

Steven: "Awaiting Moderation"

Greig: "My mood swings dude...that, and the moon."

As a band, our influences can be described as such;

We like both types of music...Rock AND Roll.

MONOTONIX
Saturday 28th November
Nice n Sleazys, Glasgow

The release of their new album tops off a whirlwind year of touring, the infamy surrounding their charged live perfomances steadily mounting. Rightly so, check out this youtube link- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmEHu-QAgNE&feature=related - and marvel at one of the typically unpredictable gigs of the band that Spin have declared the "most exciting live band in rock'n'roll."

Have a listen www.myspace.com/monotonix

£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!

Hugs from Brazil,
