"The Smiths cross bred with Superchunk, with echoes of Mega City Four"



After more than 70 gigs, 3 line up changes and nearly six years at the helm FIRSTOFTHEGIANTS are all now very old. Apart from Adam who is very unfairly in his early 20s.



Biographies are terrible terrible things. Who, quite frankly, cares where we all come from and what our CD collections are like? Well, I can tell you that I am not entirely sure what Gav's CD collection looks like, but I imagine it has lots of Nada Surf and other cool stuff. Michael has a lot of 90s dance compilations. Mine's not bad but then people may not agree with dedicating an entire section to the back catalogue of These Animal Men. Adam, I imagine, has a lot of loud shouty stuff.



So what more do you really need to know apart from that we're an indie band, in the truest sense of the word? We have our own label called LittleThink and we put on some gigs every now and then. DIY to the core! Until we get the chance to sell out that is!! Our first album is released in September 2009. Bloomin' exciting that is, I tell you.



We love to write nice songs with choruses that you can sign along to. Sorry if that's a bit 1990s but that's how we like it. We love to play live too. If you ever make the effort to come and see us you can guarantee we'll make the effort too. We've been playing live in Bristol since 2004, supporting loads of great bands including Abdoujaparov, Silver Sun, SixNationState, Fighting With Wire and all the fabulous Bristol bands. We played at London Calling in 2008 and the last ever Ashton Court Festival in 2007.

Lots of love, Steve and the rest of FIRSTOFTHEGIANTS
