Lot Lizards

Like most bands it all started with a drunken conversation in a rubbish club in London watching a succession of terrible bands in early 2005. GG of Kill Kill Kill and Lemmy of Black Time got together as ‘Subway Slims’ by debating the old (Germs and Crime) vs. the new (Oblivians and Cheater Slicks). They recruited Meg Slim to pound the skins like her more well known name-sake, but then lost Lemmy to a busy Black Time calendar.
With a more stripped back sound, the newly christened Lot Lizards moved forward at a sprint, making the rounds of the usual London clubs like Corn Rocket and Dirty Water sharing the stage with the Masonics, Los Raw Gospels, D-66 and Black Time. After drunkenly berating an entire room full of Elvis fanatics at the 12 bar (beautiful to watch), they landed a coveted slot at the Spitz Festival of Blues opening up for Australian punk blues legends The Scientists in 2007.



They kick started 2008 playing with the Cannibals and played with the Intellectuals in Italy . Meg slim appeared on Cannibals vocalist Mike Spencer’s Trash Can radio show to introduce recent Japanese trash garage scene.



In 2009, they made a short trip to France in April to spread their unique take on scuzz trash punk, recorded a live session for Breakthru radio at old school studio and played at the DIY punk rock venue, Pit’s in Kortrijk , Belgium to celebrate its 21st anniversary.



Following their debut single “leave me alone (I’ve got a bomb)” on New Zealand’s Perpetrator records and 2nd single “Nightmare Creeps” from French label Yakisakana (Nov 2007), a self titled 10” EP was released again on Yakisakana records in 2009 and things are looking good Stay tuned for further releases and their European tour in 2010.
