You can’t judge a book by its cover. You can’t make the word love.
You can’t eat the word food…a band of 4 like-minded gentlemen who have been operating on the periphery of the Glasgow music scene for the last few years.
The sound they produce can best be summed up in words unhindered by sentences;
Melodic
Energetic
Positive
Enthusiastic
Sharp
Witty
Upbeat and playful are some that have been used to describe them.
At the core burns the spirit of Punk, the ghost of Psychedelia and the ingredient ultimately essential to them, individuality. The culmination of these and their respective musical personalities creates an intriguing feast. Though in its basic form it is guitar based rock, but with lyrics that deal not with the clichés often attributed to this style. A wide range of subjects are addressed from the pursuit of hope and the shaving of monsters (metaphorically or otherwise).
You can’t eat the word food hope to be bothering a hi-fi nearby soon.

Times New Viking "Rambunctious to new standards of blessed impenetrability, Ohio trio Times New Viking’s simple-on-paper M.O. is to take the sweetest of super-sweet pop music, indiefied though it is, and strip it of its outer layers of glitz and gloss. The result is music that crackles and fuzzes, screams and roars; it’s an X-Factor audition in a spin-dryer, potential sing-alongs rendered riotously raw through purposeful deconstruction."

Hey guys, just to say thanks for an immense night on Friday, I can't remember when i enjoyed a food gig as much and that is no reflection of past gigs, i'm just rubbish and don't make it to that many, I think you'se should make badges :) I got a set list, I am more than happy :) take care and see you'se soon x P.S. where can i buy the album, Caff was supposed to be getting me one but thus so far has not materialised to be placed onto the top of my cd pile and stay within the top 10, pfft..i'm such a suck up :)
Thanks for the add. I am honored to be your friend! I loved your set last week and hope to catch you again soon. Sorry I couldn't stay to the end, but let me know if you're through this side of the country and I'll rally a crowd.
How did it go down on Friday ??/ Was it busy ?? Always dead when I am in there...
I was meant to be on the bill on Saturday but they pulled me off to make space for some bands who were meant to play the G81 on that night $*$"%"$"$"£^&£^%£
