The $hit are the FIRST, BEST and ONLY Electro-Punk Casio-Crunk Fuck-Rock Glitch-Pop Disco-Metal Post-NintendoCore beat combo in the world. EVER!
Armed with an array of cheap electronic instruments and an even cheaper wardrobe, The $hit have dragged their shambolic live show kicking and screaming across the UK - from triumphantly storming Oxford's TRUCK FESTIVAL to causing chaos at a London fashion week catwalk show and generally kicking the brains off kids all over the country, destroying stages with the likes of MC LARS, TO MY BOY, TRASH FASHION, SIMON BOOKISH, and GOLDIE LOOKIN CHAIN, leaving a trail of tinnitus and a number of very unhappy soundmen in their wake.
Their first demo, recorded with only a minidisc player, an Argos mic and an Atari ST, was placed in the top 5 of PLAYLOUDER.COM's singles of the week, and future demos received radio airplay from RADIO 1 and KERRANG! FM. In the summer of 2006, their debut album 'Lock Up Your Ghettoblasters!!!' - recorded in a ramshackle home studio and released on their own DIY label - Shit Music - was released to rip-roaring reviews across the internet, national press and fanzines across the globe. Oh, apart from two people who hated it.
Now, as they release their new EP to the world, The $hit are rocking HARDER, FASTER and LOUDER than ever before, and the foursome of Brian International, Queen Phuz, That Bloody Cat, and. um. D@V£ are getting ready to absolutely pwn brains all over the world.
It's time to get with the program. before the program gets you.
