We’re the poundstretchers. We’re a punk band based in Derbyshire in the UK. We kinda sound like Ramones, Screeching Weasel, Teen Idols and the Queers. There used to be 3 of us and now there are 4 members 1) Tom stretcher (me) Guitar and vocals, 2) Panic Bass and backing vocals, 3) Toes Drums, and the new guy 4) Glyn Guitar and backing vocals. We have our info on www.stretcherrecords.co.uk
Started off in the garage and thats pretty much where we still are after 3 years. We're building up a big catalogue of songs now with irregular gigs but regular CD releases. Had a change of bass player after the first album and a new guitarist is added for the next one.
Not very often but we'd love to. We're more of a studio band i guess, if like us and want to give us a gig email me tom@stretcherrecords.co.uk
We're a punk band so obviously Ramones but we love and kinda sound a bit like Screeching Weasel, Teen Idols, the Queers. We also love but don't sound directly like... Minor threat, nofx, descendents. Most punk bands i guess but not emo!
Is anyone interested in this? Strats, P basses and anyone's drum kit. Standard punk equipment.
I started a little record label, we only have 1 cd by the poundstretchers at the moment, its called the '4th ever poundstretchers album' and if you've listened to the mp3s and want to help us out, you can buy one for about 5 here http://interpunk.com/item.cfm?Item=58376& We're recording another band as i type this, if you're interested check out http://www.stretcherrecords.co.uk and send me an email and a demo if you have one to Stretcher Records, PO BOX 949, Maidstone.
