the Wilde Wood

Bridlington, UK.

'Teenage' goth metal band. Punky, pub-metal. Crunchy industrial (on remix). Goth-Metalheads. Melodic heavy metal.

Tribal, catchy riffs. Unusual in that they have two drum kits (which they carry around in some form of open-top VW pick-up (with a tarp over the top?).
Adam studied music at the Ryley centre (college) and played a lot of jazz there, which has made it into their shows (as an interlude).
Themes of pain, rejection, revenge.

Name chosen randomly - nothing to do with centaurs or any mythical creatures. Or: a legendary headless creature, a powerful beast controlled by the evil warlock Dagmyar.
