Relentless and uncompromising yet soaring and intricate, Waking Theo weld the brutal to the beautiful to create music that is both stunning and epic. Drawing influence from a vast cross-section of metal, from pummelling, classic thrash, through to modern-day melodic death, Waking Theo carve out a sound that is both evocative and different, displaying the perfect balance between extremity and accessibility.

Since forming in 2005, the Yorkshire based quintet have honed their precise and energetic performance style with devastating effect, resulting in a hard hitting live show few underground bands can match. This has led to their selection for support slots with names such as Malefice, Trigger the Bloodshed, Mendeed, Biomechanical and many more.

In 2011, Waking Theo self-released their second EP, ‘Ghost in the Machine’ which was to be their final release with Mikey Slatcher on vocals. In early 2012 the band parted ways with their singer of 6 years as a result of musical differences and welcomed aboard Craig Gordon to complete the current line-up. As of now, the band is in the process of writing fresh material with a view for a release before the end of the year.

Lobo at the moment a piece band founded by myself Lex at the moment playing Bass,Guitar,Synth,Harmonica and Vocals with Levi Colgan playing Guitar,Jake Davy Guitar,And David Edward Colston Drums, some of the tracks on SoundCloud feature old members of the band John Ross Drums,and Keith Robinson Bass,
We are a band writing material that comes from well influences and just what feeling comes out when we play well thats how i feel bout it, riff ideas melodies just happen i usually right the tunes and the guys add there parts but other members of the band occasionally write tunes Jake helped write Pine Woods as he composed the verse n chorus riffs,also Keith used to right many songs when he was with the band but no longer play those songs although was thinking of uploading them as part of the bands history. 
  We have had many people in the band,few to mention Tim Eldergill Bass for bout a year after Keith Left and Matty Jackobs Drums replacing John, at this time Jake had left the band up until recently when he started playing with us again,and also Alex Herbert (black) who played bass after Tim left the Band and shortly after Dave joined us on drums replacing Matty the band started 2008 with original line up,Lex,Jake,Keith,John, in 2010 Jake left and Levi joined a year later ,Lot of messing about hey!
   Played many local gigs in our town and few in surrounding areas Leeds,York but looking to play further afield too.Also played a few small local festivals too, furthest away being Cock Rock In Cumbria, want to do more festival stuff.I enjoy playing outside more than anything i think! 
    i dont know what genre we are and dont want to b pinned down by one used to say alternative rock but not sure what that is? 

How do,
I'm a guitarist and singer/songwriter living in Leeds.
Most of the music on here is acoustic, but soon there will be metal...
