AKA

1) AkA Electronic Music project was grounded in 1993 by Henri Sizaret with the aim to go further in the inspiration triggered by the work of Richard H. Kirk, Uwe Schmidt and Vince Clarke. AkA music is artificial, snappy, electronic and metronomic.
Almost 15 years after its inception and more than 50 tracks, AkA philosophy remains the intact : to be a skin (hence the name "AkA" for Also Known As) for Henri to play with music and create, freed from day light life.

The Chapman Family

The Chapman Family are a group of four miserable northerners from Teesside, England and have been playing together since May 2006 – Kingsley Chapman (vocals/guitar), Pop Chapman (bass), Paul Chapman (guitar), and Phil Chapman (drums). They decided to create their own brand of intensely dark and noisy indie as they were tired of being bored and uninspired by the same old bands week in, week out. They are as much inspired by folk as hardcore punk and their occasionally chaotic gigs can change from euphoric to the apocalypse in an instant.

The joke was pretty much successful due to the band's similar sound.
