Despondent are an amazing, fast skate punk band from the UK. Influences from Lagwagon, Pulley, Slick Shoes, NOFX - but sound nothing like any of those bands!Band/artist history
Despondent spawned through the creative songwriting of Reuben, his solid musical partnership with Bass Virtuoso Luke and Nik's Collossal Rhythms.
Despondent developed their sound so every song had its own character, but worked hard to maintain a distinctive character throughout.
They have just finished recording their first album Proud to Fail which is due for release December 16th.Have you performed in front of an audience?We play as many gigs as we can around Leicester, Derby, Nottingham area at the moment - always looking for new places to play and new bands to play with.
Your musical influences
Despondent have been influenced by the skatepunk from the 90s and 2000s from labels like Epitaph, Fat Wreck, Burning Heart, Lookout etc. and bands such as Lagwagon, Pulley, Slick Shoes, NOFX, Offspring, Rancid, Bouncing Souls.Anything else?
The music is always written to support the political & socialogical edged lyrics so they have maximum impact.
