New single by The Suns - release date April 24 2012

The River Dee may not be tidal, nor is it deep enough to surf, but somehow, somewhere, Chester groovers The Suns have managed to tap into the spirit of the forgotten vices of tremolo abuse and spring reverb addiction and made it their own... In the summer of 2006, The Suns ( played their first gig at Jones's in Chester. Inspired by American garage groups like Brian Jonestown Massacre, Flat Duo Jets, The Black Lips, Best of British, the Stones and the Beatles and country legends Johnny Cash and Link Wray, The Suns spent hours in Liam's garage rehearsing and recording hours worth of demo's honing their thing. Out of these long days in the garage they knocked out Surf Nightmare, picked up by Xfm DJ Clint Boon (Inspiral Carpets) who on hearing it for the first time said "how cool is that" and proceeded to play it back to back on his show. The instrumental became a fixture on his play list for the next few years as well as gaining airplay on several other Northwest radio stations. All dressed in black, The Suns gigged relentlessly thoughout the Northwest, supporting the likes of Kid British, The Black Lips, Dodgy, The Bishops, Howard Marks, Twisted Wheel and The Masonics. Also putting on their own unique gigs such as The Lady Diana Show Boat along the River Dee last summer. 2011 brought along festival appearances at Friends of Mine (The Lightning Seeds, The Cribs, The Charlatans), Cavfest (James, Rowetta) and Chester Rocks (Iggy Pop, Shaun Ryder, Leftfield) Big Trouble In Little Deva, The Suns début album was released in 2010 on Plainsounds Records. With lyrics telling yarns from Chester with a back drop of spaghetti western inspired Latino garage rock, it was both an old and totally fresh sound, gaining the band a cult following. Now into 2012 The Suns are working on new material for the follow up to Big Trouble In Little Deva. With a brand new single and video for the song Jessica out on Stereokill records on 27th March and with the big gig at Chester Rocks, The Suns will be rising.

"The Suns are one of the few bands around making real garage music with a totally contemporary feel. Live, they’re f**kin brilliant. They’re the kind of band I want to be in" (Clint Boon of the Inspiral Carpets & Xfm)

"Apart from the last song i thought they were fucking shite" (Some bloke stood at the bar at the catholic club)

"A little bit of Jagger’s swagger, a hint of Hendrix and a double dose of Morrison’s madness" (Telfords Warehouse)

"Jono's deep croon, heavy use of maracas and Rutter's glorious spaghetti-western guitar lines all pile up into an intoxicating stew that manages the rare and impressive trick of being universally likeable yet intriguingly original." (Manchester Music Dash review)

Johnny Come Latleys - What They Say About You

Band - Distance From Zero
Title – Pilot Error
Label – Stereokill Recordings
Cat No –KiLL 029
Format – Digital Album
Release date – October 24 2020

This is the debut album release from post punk duo Distance From Zero who have formerly released material as Johnny Come Latelys. ‘Pilot Error’ is the logical follow on from the Johnny Come Latelys’ EP’s  ‘Messiah  Complex pt1’ & ‘Judas Factor’.  Both which are available on bandcamp along with the 2008  album ‘Collateral Damage’.

‘Pilot Error’ is essentially a post punk album which also embraces elements of dub. Vocalist / Bass player SJ Collier former member Manchester dub rockers SupaJamma. SJ is partnered with Donna-Marie-Stevens on Vocal / Keyboard duties. Donna-Marie is a former choral singer (soprano), she featured for many years with Bury Community Choir. 

The album also features Collier’s former SupaJamma bandmates Stephen Wilson Jnr. Smile Like Fools / Ed Banger & the Nosebleeds / SWJ Group / Wilson / The Cornelius Crane  & Dan Adams – The Cornelius Crane / Dead Captain along with The The Sun & the Moon / Music For Aborigines guitarist Andy Clegg. Wilson is also the album’s producer.

The musical style has drawn several comparisons from PiL, Dub Sex, Levellers, Killing Joke, Chameleons & Gary Numan. The songs reflect the observations of life over the last few decades, politics, war, corruption, austerity, personal challenges, failures & triumphs. The musical journey started with a Colier’s bedsit punk band in the early 1980’s & he is now upholding that DIY tradition in the 2020’s

‘Pilot Error’ will initially be a digital release on all popular digital platforms with plans for a vinyl release when touring is back as a viable option.
