616 are a bleak, heartbroken and vicious mess of a band. Fronted by transgender vocalist Miss j616 they're working on tracks that will appear later in the year on their album - to be called 'SONGS WITHOUT JOY'


Miss j616 - Vocals, songwriting & fatal flaws

Dominic - Guitars and onstage Traumas

Gemma - Bassssss

Jared - Synths, Ninjutsu and Occult practices

Why this name?
616 is recorded in 'some' ancient biblical scrolls as the number of the Beast and not 666

For us, the '616/666' thing symbolises that what we may take for granted as common knowledge/certainty, may turn out to be wrong. History has often proved this to be the case time an time again.

(But can you rely on what you've been taught as your History ....?)

As for the second half of the name, that's too emotive to talk about here
Do you play live?
sometimes - always open to offers

Last year one of our highlights was supporting Apoptygma Berzerk at the Morecambe Goth Festival in the UK
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
We're a disease no-one wants, and what we've seen of major labels makes us sick to the pits of our sour bellies anyway
Band History:
Previously called SQUID, and were twice voted BEST UNSIGNED BAND in Metal Hammer magazines annual readers poll

Never were signed, and so that just made us more spiteful & venomous
Anything else...?
Jared and Miss j616 both dj monthly goth*industrial nights....

Jared in York @ DARKLANDS

Miss j in Preston @ DARK-CIDE and THE CURIOUS CLUB Fetish Night, also in Preston

(the dark bit's co-incidental !!)
