THE GRIPES

Artist Description

Gabba gabba hey guys, we’re the gripes umm, we’re from the lower Newcastle region and we like the ramones. Our band consists of Robert the guitarist ( he’s a bit slow ), jono ( the bassist, he’s a politically charged/confused mid teen that plays bass and sings), trav ( he’s not worth mentioning, he’s the drummer and singer, he’s a vegan and he isn’t happy with people of his school), and sometimes marcoson guitar when he’s not ripping his genes or writing love songs. Yeh well some influences include the ramones, dead kennedy’s, muse, pink floyd, sex pistols, nofx, minor threat, nirvana, bob marley and the harpooners, qotsa, the beatles(of coarse) and ill throw in good charlotte for a diversification. We try to play fast loud, sometimes angry rock with similarities to styles such as punk rock, reggae, rock “n” roll, hardcore and even some metal, weather we pull it off is another question but try to be a little generous when criticizing for the boys are shy and often scarred by bad judgement.

Peace off.
