London based 'We buy gold' are a diverse post punk, rock, rap band who are not afraid to explore and incorporate various styles. Influences range from Bad brains to Roni Size and they have been likened to bands such as Mudhoney and Asian Dub Foundation. 'We buy gold,' emerged from hibernation in the spring of 2010 with a new line up and refreshed determination to entertain audiences with a attitude driven performance that gets people shaking across the dance floor. The principle writers in the band are Marlon (guitarist) and Craig (vocalist). Sebastian (drummer) and Ko-chun (bassist) add their influences in the original and stylistic arrangements. When 'We buy gold' hit the stage they push the limit into overdrive. Imagine a balloon at full inflation, on the verge of popping but never does until your attention wanders then, BOOM! Bombastic, dynamic and imaginative waves of sonic power. Delicately crafted and meticulously shaped to form a true gritty London sound. 

****************************************************************** 
We Buy Gold started around 4 years ago by Craig (vocalist). As a youngster he was deeply involved in the underground old school Drum and base scene then progressed onto the Garage scene with a great determination showcasing a unique style of his own. After mc’in in England with some of the greatest pirates from an early age, working abroad in Spain in some of the biggest clubs around alongside well known name's in the Garage and drum and bass scene, Craig decided to take all of his influences and experiences and create a band with the soul intention of it being unique and innovative. After a short break of a few months the band returned with a full line up and with some of the greatest tracks to date. Marlon on guitar brings a high energy performance skilled with styles ranging from alternative punk to classical Spanish who also plays an integral role in the composition and arrangements. Sebastian on the drums shows his versatility in his block rock’in beats influenced by the alternative rock style, and new to the band Ko-chun on bass who has a wealth of experience in various styles from experimental electro to funk rock. They are currently recording their first album "Ron's Room" at the premises studios with a great manager and friend Tony Holland from 19th floor music. So the future is bright and the sound and energy of this band untouchable.
