On 19 April, SIIIII will make their Germany debut at the
OUTSIDER-PARTY 15 in Braunschweig! Some of you might already know them
(for example from the SMOKE AND SPOTLIGHT compilation Vol. 2), for all
the others, here's a short band history:
Siiiiii were born in early 1983 when singer Paul, then only 19, moved
from his native East Anglia to Sheffield purely to be in the band,
joining guitarist Mark and bassist Angie. Taking their name from
William Burroughs' "The Soft Machine" they gigged extensively during
the early to mid 1980's and possibly hold the record for the amount of
times they were nearly signed to record labels. Siiiiii disbanded in
1986 and the members went their separate ways. Mark went on to play in
the Anti-Group and Paul became involved in The Niceville Tampa (now
Niceville) and later with DVO in South Wales. In 2005 having been
"rediscovered" following a chance meeting of emails between Paul and
Mick Mercer, the band are back writing some incredible new material
and cleaning up the analogue tracks from those early years. . A new
generation awaits them. Wonderful things shall occur.
A must for all "Old School Goths", Deathrockers, and Post Punkers!
