No, thanks.
Hello, we are the pop group Sack Trick. We write songs about topics that other bands are too scared to address like tigers and unusual flavours of ice cream.



Our first album is called "Music from the Mystery Rabbits". It contains the non-hits "I Play Bass", "Blue Ice Cream" and the ode for weary travellers "Hiring Camels". Some magazine or other heard it and said "This band could go far, but they sing songs about frozen desserts, so they wont.". They were right.

Our second album is called "Penguins on the Moon", we'll be honest here and tell you it's a concept album about some penguins that go to the moon. It's got a colour cartoon strip to go along with the story. Kerrang magazine heard it and said "Obviously this is a work of utter genius; an instant classic". Rock Sound magazine said it was "brilliantly written, brilliantly performed and brilliantly put together, an album that deserves the title essential".

Our third album is a tribute to another pop group called, Kiss. It's called Sheep In Kiss Make-Up. Because Kiss had already recorded their own songs in a serious (and very good) way, we thought we'd record them in a very silly way. You can hear Love Gun on this page, we also covered lots of other Kiss songs and even the whole of the Elder album- there's no point in dong things by halves is there? Lots of Kiss fans went crazy (crazy crazy) for the album. Kiss FAQ website said it deserved "more than superlatives can describe", classic rock magazine said it was "the greatest covers album of all time". We tried not to let that go to our heads, but when Bob Ezrin (the producer of the original Elder album) said he "loved" our version, we had to let that one go to our heads for an hour or two.

As you can see from the list of band members, there are many people in Sack Trick, some for a day some for an eternity. Some people don't even know they're in Sack Trick. But they are.



Sack Trick don't play many gigs, but when we do we try to make them good. We like to play alternative venues such as very small islands, laserquest arenas and breweries. If you see a Sack Trick gig advertised you should go to it. You will like it.



Sack Trick's plans for the future include releasing some more albums and a DVD and then hiding in a forest until it gets dark.



There's loads more info, photos, vids, MP3s and stuff like that at www.sacktrick.com.



AND REMEMBER DON'T TALK TO TIGERS.
