Late Of The Pier
Latin / Glam / Thrash
Nottingham,
UK
Throughout the 1990's manufactured music was at an all time high,
with major record labels and factories mass producing groups and using their looks
and personalitys to line their own pockets with gold.
The main mass producer of such groups was Zarcorp Inc. Industries... A multi-billion
pound industry that created groups and artists on a production line. From a smoke
laden factory with cooling towers as far as the eye could see groups and bands were
constantly manufactured and published into the industry. However... one cold dark
night a terrible event occured within the Zarcorp headquarters.
A bear broke into the factory and unleashed mayhem within, destroying countless
artists and maiming unfinished groups. Thankfully one brave Zarcorp worker was
clever and lucky enough to push the bear (by means of a bright yellow stick) into
the cogs of the Zarcorp Inc. Artist Producing machine V2.1 and destroy the threat.
However all was not well, once the production line was reassembled and restarted it
was apparent the machine had a hideous fault... Out from the machine appeared a
new type of group...calling themselves Late Of The Pier.
Late Of The Pier were to be the ultimate downfall of manufactured music and the
end of Zarcorp Inc. Industies. It seemed that the band that were designed to be the
greatest manufactured group of all time were infact the complete opposite.. 4
youths, with obscure music tastes, an obscurer outlook on life, a general dislike
of conformity, niave musicality, a perverse approach to making music and a serious
lack of organisation. Late Of The Pier emerged into the world prepared to spread
their clumsy jazz over as much as possible...but then decided the sun was too bright
and they wernt wearing the correct socks for the day...so they went back inside to
write some more songs.
