The Despondents aim to deliver some real Rock'n'Roll to the people of England. It's hard, fast, and full of attitude. In short, it's ace. The Despondents formed in the summer of 2006, after they all become disillusioned with their hometown of Leeds and its fame-obsessed music scene. In the wake of the Arctic Monkeys came a plethora of bands, trying to jump on the bandwagon to success. The Despondents were determined to stick to their own original, real influences. Taking their cues from punk bands past and present their aim is to bring us short sharp garagerock tunes that hit you like an atom bomb. And boy do they deliver. Shuddering basslines, Screeching guitars, insane vocals and a drummer who makes Keith Moon seem like a choirboy! Each song is filled with its own self belief and expectation. Not to mention being proper songs in the great songwriting tradition, but played with energy and passion, not just treading in the footsteps of their local contemporaries with the sole aim being to ape the chart success of others. The Despondents are something special to behold. So don't miss out!
