Band: How Long You Been Driving
From: Brighton, UK
Their formation story:
(Jude, vocals): "We met at Uni, kinda just stumbled upon each other and ended up finding out we were the only ones who liked the same kind of heavy music as each other within the groups of people we knew and then just started the band, started covering some songs and writing our own just having as much fun with it as possible."
Their sound in their own words:
"Our sound is sort of hardcore; sort of metalcore' kinda mathy and intense, but somewhat poppy too. For fans of Vein.fm, Converge and, nu metal warriors."
Latest release info:
"Our newest release, Terrible Noise, is a collection of the first 5 songs we put together, the more ‘hardcore’ sounding songs of our roster. We spent a good year on this, being fussy and forgetting about what we were doing at the same time. We got there eventually and we’re real proud!"
Future plans:
"Next up, we’re gonna get straight back into recording some more tunes we’ve got a few day festivals coming up such as The Levy Punk Weekender in Manchester at the end of July, as well as another tour or two towards the end of the year."
What other bands from their region should we check out?
"There are so many wicked bands coming out if the scene in Brighton at the moment whether that be the emo/grungy stuff from the bands Wimp and Prom to the classic BN1 Hardcore sound from bands like Burn It All. Another mention is a Portuguese band we just toured with called Clericbeast Wicked band and awesome guys!"
