GLOBAL CHARGE
Global Charge are a three-piece rock band from Bristol making globally charged music. Drawing on the intensity of post-punk, alternative rock and the Evening Post, they deal in tension rather than nostalgia. Their songs confront fractured politics, modern alienation and the quiet violence of everyday life. The band features Jim Johnston on guitar and vocals, Kevin Jones on bass, and Jamie Hill on drums. Together they build a lean, uncompromising sound: heavy guitars, relentless bass lines and driving drums. No manifestos. Everything's fine. Turn it up.
STATE
Bristol, UK, Post-punk, electronic, alt-rock. STATE are a new Bristol band combining post-punk and industrial sounds with electronica and 90s dance influences.
