SEEKING

Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums.

ABOUT

Hi there, Nik here – guitarist, singer, songwriter – looking for bandmates to bring a personal project of unique, progressive hardcore punk to life as a live act in Edinburgh (bassist, drummer, lead guitarist needed).

Got the first EP out, DIY, with 5 original tracks. I played all instruments recorded except the drums.

It’s up on Bandcamp as of August 2024: https://fu*kallrnr.bandcamp/album/fu*k-all-ep

You can listen there, read the lyrics, or check out the Music section here for uploaded tracks.

The first lyric video single is on YouTube too (check the Video section).

Lyrics draw from personal views on social, political, and class struggles, while also delving into introspective experiences.

Flexible about gigging but not looking to commit to a tight schedule or heavy touring right now—more into one-off city gigs and mini-tours here and there.

Open to creative collaboration on songwriting moving forward if it clicks, of course.
