Coma Coma Drama





Coma Coma Drama are Sean Hollywood and Paul Baker both 22 from Woolton, Liverpool. Rehearsing at Crosstown Studios they describe their sound as a cross between Crystal Castles and NIN. 'Electro music is in vogue now but we're still niche.' explains Paul. 'This is our second show at Korova. They asked us back' Sean smiles. 'We just want to do as many shows as possible now.'

An array of equipment develops their brand of circuit-bending.

Reason, Logic, Kaos Pad, iPods as sample triggers, a fender telecaster with fuzz factory, a CME MIDI controller and a circuit bent Casio M80 make up the gear.

'We like the random stuff that happens. When there's a nursery rhyme or a taxi radio in the middle of a song.'

It's a big abrasive sound for fans of the above mentioned influences and also Aphex Twin, Venetian Snares.

KOF done Glastonbury


KOF, the Diamond in the Dirt, was in his element knee deep in Glastonbury mud, if at the expense of his previously spotless Nikes. He admits it was "one of the best gigs I've ever played. So many different types of people all coming together, having a great time!"


Pictured here with Annie Mac, who kept the shirt!. Better get a big shout out for that one!


Jackpot Golden Boys are back
