Biog:
The Uncomfortables are battered guitars and songs about love and Hell, the things that matter. Elements of Pixies, Tom Waits, Film Noir and Surf Rock come clattering together in an electrifying mixture.

The Uncomfortables have played high profile gigs with Jamie T, We Are Scientists, Dartz, Aidan Smith and the Departure as well as festivals such as Kendal Calling and One Big Weekend.

For gig bookings please contact us via myspace...

Aside from gigging or rather alongside gigging we run a night in our very own Priestown named Club Soixante-Neuf for us and like-minded-split-sided bands to play. Check out the bands in our top friends, they're there for a reason. If you'd like to come and play with us and think we'd get along famously then drop us a line here on ourspace...

Reviews:
"The Uncomfortables have a literary take on love, life, and the human nature, all phrased with an acerbic accent. Listen again for a taste of British Sea Power, and the lyrical strength..."
- Liam Pennington (High Voltage)

"Frontman Richard Lomax is a madman. As he sings his drunken, manic, sea-shanty style songs, his eyeballs roll into the back of his head, his face distorts into scowls and frowns and he wails unexpectedly, becoming more than just a mouth-piece for the songs but at one with the despair the song depicts. The Uncomfortables are compelling, screwed up and brilliant."
- Melissa Davey (Drum Media)

"Part-surf, part-cow-punk... What's not to like? Demo of the month."

- Math Priest (Rhythm Magazine)

"...influenced by an array of artists from Bowie to Kinks to Zutons. These fellas from Priest Town offer a fresh perspective. These boys really do have something to give and are definitely a band to look out for. Their tracks are awesome with the juice turned on."
- Shane King (Beat Magazine)

"De-da-de-da-dee-dead fucking good!"

- Ed Monk (Hed Magazine)

"...the Uncomfortables are terrific. They play a visceral half-hour of thrash-pop, with oodles of organ and charisma."

- Jamie Smith (the Music Magazine)

Babes. New tracks are absolutely dish-licious. Good to hear Django Ray, and Levi's Genes is superb!

Raging hard-on for the 27th. The V. Cs aren't down as far as I know though!

Take care out there

Thanks awfully for taking a pair of shop-soiled acoustic chancers into your fold, chaps; it was a gutsy decision, and one we hope you won't regret.
We'll certainly do our damnedest to make you proud you "went CrackTown"...
