The Hip Priests
Настоящее имя: The Hip Priests
Об исполнителе:
British Punk Rock band formed in May 2006 in Nottingham, England. Original line up was Gary X-Ray (vocals), Lee Love (Bass), Fast Jimmy (Guitar) and Skintight Tim (drums). Initially formed just for excuses to hang about and get pissed, the band's hastily recorded initial demo of six songs was snapped up by Sweden's esteemed Bootleg Booze record label - forcing the band to continue. Jimmy/James left the band in 2009 claiming that the band partying and drug intake had become more important than their musical endeavours. By this time, new guitarist, Austin Rocket had taken predominant guitar. Gary Christie left the band in 2010 following a fatal midlife crisis and, although the band considered jacking it in, the recruitment of local panda-eyed kickboxing champion, Nathan Von Cruz, instantly injected the band with a new lease of life - despite being banned from glamorous Grimsby at their first gig with the new line up after altercations with Hell's Angels and 'exotic dancers' in attendance. Drummer, Skintight Tim then left in August 2015 and was replaced bye 'the kid', Joe Blow (11) In October 2017 Joe then left and was replaced by the new drummer D.P. Bomber At the same time, the band decided to recruit a rhythm guitarist and took on Canadian, Silent Mike. The band then parted ways with Mike in December 2018 and then located the local wunderkid guitarist, Gentle Ben. March 2019: The band have now put out three albums, a double singles compilation and around 26 singles (with more to come) of genius anthemic Garage / Post Scandi / Action Proto Punk / Rock 'n' Roll (or whatever you wanna call it). They are due to release their masterpiece final album 'Stand For Nothing' on March 11th 2019. They continue to be largely ignored by what's left of the mainstream 'music business' (if that's still a thing) and continue to revel in their UK scene pariah status. The singles now pretty much sell out in little time at all and they've amassed a hardcore fanbase of loons, misfits, many of which now form their 'fanclub', The Spasm Gang. The world at large doesn't give a fuck but neither, in the main, do they. Here's To Adversity.
