Paul: "I was reminded recently by @ianstobbie (first TS drummer - under the name Thunderstruck at the time! 😂 ), that this month marks 25 years since our first proper gig! 😯

A quarter of a century since we took our primal step onto a public stage, at Lucifer's Mill in Dundee. There were three other bands, but I can only recall the names "Krome" and "Gimp".

We were terrible, if I remember correctly. At one point, I kicked our singer up the bum, because he forgot to come in on the second verse of Metallica's "For Whom The Bell Tolls". It might have been our club debut, be he decided it was his last gig with us.

Four figures of gigs, and about 100k miles or more later, here we are; trapped in the tail end of a pandemic with all you lovely lot. Can't wait to hit a stage again!"

Time flies faster than you know...

This month, our first - and, so far, only - full-length turns 10 years old! That's absolutely crazy!

Over a decade ago, we scraped together for the best recording equipment we could afford, and took it in turns to nestle down in Greg's old flat in Perth, doing our most heartfelt impression of musicians.

Greg recorded, mixed, and mastered the whole thing himself. The artwork was hand-painted by Paul's girlfriend Sapphire (same as the backdrop we still use today!), and photographed by David Gibala, friend of then drummer, Ivan.

A real DIY affair, pulled together by our small family, it landed exactly where it was meant to. It's a fairly dirty collection of our favourite songs to play at the time, somewhere between decent demo and professional grade release. It's honest, it's different, and it's a huge part of our adventures.

If you've never heard it, or just don't have a copy, we still have it up on Bandcamp as a pay-what-you-want, with no minimum amount.

The link is in our bio! Go grab yourself a slab of teuchter death-thrash-sludge history!
