Countertypes is a five-piece rock band from London, England. The band writes and plays their own material, spanning genres such as Hard Rock, Alternative and Metal. A band of not just like-minded young musicians, but great friends that fucking love rocking out.

The band has a great list of influences that range from Foo Fighters through to the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Paramore, Jeff Buckley & many more.

The Pale started life in Dublin's Northside in the early 90's but drew their influences from far beyond. For some they are best remembered for their hits 'Butterfly' and 'Dogs with no tails'. But that is only the tip of the iceberg for a band that has steered clear off the beaten track.
 
Flirtations with chart success, forays into alternative circuses, tours way off the beaten path in Russia, Japan, Eastern Europe and beyond are all par for the course for a band that have refused to be categorised or trade off past glories. 
 
The Pale's  live reputation is hard earned, with sets jumping between indie-pop, reggae, Eastern European folk, all presented with a wry lyrical twist and frenetic energy. Never to be pigeonholed, a Pale gig will see them play dozens of songs drawing from a range of genres. Mandolins and bouzoukis duel with synths and drums, all propelled by their inimitable stage presence and striking musical prowess.

وإذا ما صرخنا،
إذا ما أفصحنا عن أصواتنا الأخرى
فحتى الملائكة.. 
ستخفى رؤوسها تحت أجنحتها الثقيلة
لئلا تسمع الصرخة.
