Band Info
Buzzkill are a rock band hailing from Leeds, West
Yorkshire. Some people say they play rock 'n' roll,
some people say they're more punk rock, one thing
that's not disputed is that they play LOUD!

The Buzzkill of today was formed at the turn of the
millennium. No longer a band of schoolmates playing
Nirvana covers in Joe's garage, these guys were now
ready to take their uniquely brassed up punk rock ‘n’
roll onto the road and have since played alongside
bands including The Distillers, Pretty Girls Make
Graves, Hot Water Music, Goldblade, The Hunns,
Horrorpops, Capdown and The Damned.

In the autumn of 2002 came their self-financed debut
7" which found it's way onto Radio 1's 'The Lock-up'
and shortly after their debut CD 'Double Down' (on In
at the Deep End Records) which hit the shelves in
April 2003 and received much adoration from the press.

"Like an avant-garde jazz troupe rucking with the
Clash as they both fall down a flight of stairs. Now
that's entertainment! KKKK" - Kerrang

"Forget your old favourite band and vote Buzzkill!
8/10" - Rocksound

"...With West Yorkshire's very own hot-wired Richard
Hell fronting a veritable firestorm of
riff-propelled sass, Buzzkill will rekindle your
faith in delinquent rock 'n 'roll 7/10" - Metal Hammer

"No punches pulled or hidden agendas, just fast,
loud, hookladen rock 'n' roll. That's all you need!"
- Fracture

Following the release of Double Down, Buzzkill
continued to play further afield, touring the pubs,
clubs, and squats of Germany, Switzerland and Holland
in Spring 2003.

Since then Buzzkill hit somewhat of a hiatus because
their original bass player Joe Osborne felt his time
with the band was done. But upon enlisting one time
stand in bassist Carl Glover to take Joe's place, a
fresh drive and passion was instilled in the ranks.
With the five piece as solid as ever, and their
involuntary slowing down well and truly in the past,
they set about writing a whole bunch of new material.
13 songs of which will manifest themselves this
October as their debut full length album, "DRIVEN BY
LOSS"! And with these brand new songs comes a brand
new swagger, so be sure to check them out live!

After Radio One's lockup played tracks from 'Driven By Loss' a number of times, the guys were booked in and recorded a session that was aired on 8/11/05
