Smoke Like A Fish

With an up tempo two-toned Ska-popunkish attack, Smoke like a Fish from Mid Wales relentlessly pump the off beat with groove and aggression, behind brass splattered riffs, catchy choruses and social comment. After 2 EPs on our own Kippertronix label and a few appearances on various compilations, we sign to `Do the Dog` and release the self-titled debut album in April 2002.

Invaders

There are two bands known as Invaders: 1.

The Invaders live near rock music but probably won’t be understood by the AC/DC fan next door. Fans of the Sun City Girls and early Butthole Surfers will be pleased, however, to find a new psychedelic, grainy mindblast of a band.
