Ax-minster Scotchguard (Bio)

Ax-Minster Scotchguard and the Numskulls are on a mission, to rid the smoke filled pubs of England of all of the bands that take themselves too seriously, for too long bands have been to busy feeding their own egos and neglecting to entertain the crowd. That's why Ax-Minster Scotchguard & The Numskulls are putting the fun back into live music, putting smiles back on the faces of gig goers who are desperate to be entertained. With songs such as 'Yes Car Credit' & 'BBC BASTARDS', the band isn't going to win the most politically correct band of the year award, and with a marmite style of music that you either love or you hate, it wont be to everyone's tastes, and you can laugh with the band or at it, it really doesn't matter, just so long as after watching them live, or after listening to the CD you are left with a smile on your face………That is what the band is about……….

"If sugar, spice and all things nice really was the ingredients to make little girls, then the recipe for Ax Minster Scotchguard and the Numskulls must surely be beer and a good old Sunday Roast after a hard day down' pit. Imagine if you will: good old modern UK pop-punk The Numskulls; combining talents with the wailings and statements of the local-to-Mansfield-accent-supporting Ax Minster Scotchguard; what you get isn't so much a voice in the crowds of the suppressed as an alcohol fuelled interpretation of how and why the world is- my example being the now famous "Yes Car Credit," and the observation that "even if you're on the dole, you can f*&kin' get it." Not the most delicate of political and social commentary's you'll find on pub stages, but bloody hell- great fun!" (Leon gigged web).
