‘Can you really be punk in comfortable suburban Surrey?’ is a question that’s been thrown around a lot in relation to Darko. The blistering answer lies in Sea of Trees, the 3rd EP from the UK melodic punks - you've heard plenty of punk bands, but never one twisting conventions like this.

Channeling the technical skill of Protest The Hero, the colossal choruses of Four Year Strong and the brutality of Slayer into a sound that's got more in common with Pennywise, A Wilhelm Scream and Propagandhi, this lot specialize in melodic, fingertapped guitar intricacy woven into a balls out strain of skate punk. ‘It’s like Anthrax finger banging Blink-182, and they’re loving it’, describes vocalist Dan Smith

‘Alright, let’s just get this out there for everyone: this band is composed of some SERIOUS rippers’ – DyingScene.com

‘Melodic and heavy, fast and intricate, Darko play furious melodic hardcore with incendiary live shows’ – FRONT Magazine

[TRIBUTE TO A PERFECT CIRCLE] - Disbanded. Looking for new members! (2 Guitars, bass, Drums, BV's and Violin/Fiddle).

Distinctive and eclectic, ACP's particular style merges the extremes of rock and metal music with an embracingly destructive blues. The cathartic audio violence of their shows has led to a wide-reaching reputation in the U.K. underground rock scene.

I'm Stu, i'm a songwriter, guitarist and singer. My songwriting ethos is "if i like it, i do it". 
Its ROCK music, with a band, without a band, whether its post this or punk that, II don;t really care much for genre classifications and such, thats for people who write about music, and describing what i do on all these websites is a fucking chore! On here is a collection of things i have recorded with the band, or on my own at home. I'm currently rehearsing with a new band, watch this space.
