    Artist History
    Based in Rochester MN, we are a mixed bunch of english, scottish, canadian, dutch and minnesotans. Rochester was a very dull city, so we decided to liven it up a little by forming an old school punk band. After 18 months rehearsal from scratch (none of us ever played rock and roll B4!!!!) , and several gigs around MN (inc. eclipse records) and WI with The Super Troopers, and one supporting Wesley Willis in Lacrosse WI, we finally made it into the studio in Rochester to record the "Never Mind the Bottom" C D. (produced by local Mike Thompson at lastminute records). Cut in 2 sessions we hope it captures our DIY feel , attitude and energy, and famous british sense of humour! Inspired by the likes of the Sex Pistols, the Ramones, the Misfits, Undertones, The T oy Dolls, the Buzzcocks etc. we took on the conservative establishment in Rochester , dominated by the Mayo Clinic and IBM, and we might just have won! ´
