An experimental art/punk group from Manchester who mix punk and electronics to form their sounds and noises as well as visuals and artwork to carry their message. Formed originally from a past electronic musical collaboration of Johnny Mutant and Phatseanio: "I got together with Phatseanio after feeling very disillusioned with some of the restrictions of the punk scene, besides a handful of bands and people it had become stagnant in some ways. Phatseanio was into the same Free Festival vibe that I was into, and also very much into playing ‘outside the box’. So we experimented for a while mixing guitars, synths and electronic noises, It soon became very obvious that we would need more than the two of us as we were enjoying ourselves and wanted to expand, So we thought of trying to meet up with some other individuals who had similar ideas" - Johnny They joined together with vocalist Joey, bassist Martyn and drummer Zeff to create the band. Wanting to try something different than the punk bands members had been involved in before they mixed in different sounds and concepts from members artwork and words to form the ideas around the band, while also mixing in social, political and personal commentary to their songs and artwork.
