Helve are a Yorkshire based Post-Metal/Doom band fully formed in February 2015. 
With varying musical influences we are aiming to merge  different genres to achieve a heavy sound with melodic/soundscape elements.
FFO: Neurosis, Amenra, Rosetta.

I enjoy composing & producing music in my home studio. Having been turn on to music by the like of Iron Maiden, early Black Sabbath, Ozzy, Megadeth & Queen heavy rock/metal was the original direction I took when I sat down to try to compose my first tunes.

Pink Floyd found a way into my life & also a way into my creative thought process and this was a big turning point for me, the Floyd showed me that verse chorus etc was not all that music could be. I soon started playing with sounds & sound fxs, the world of music had just become so much bigger...........& better.

More bands followed, Gong, Marillion, & the absolutely out of this world Ozric Tentacles all reinforcing the verse chorus 4 minute song is not for everyone.

Finally around 2003 I set out to record what would become my first album/EP Stand Alone Together, id come up with a theme surrounding the 1969 moon landing & how a good % of people believe the mission was a hoax & I wanted to try & tell this story using music. With my Floyd & Maiden influences in hand I set out to piece together some demos I had recording over the previous few years.

I managed to find a really good group of musicians & vocalists to work with who helped massively in the final out come of Stand Alone Together.

The album went on to sell well worldwide through my Myspace page & I also managed to gain plenty of radio airplay along with a handful of interviews, for someone like myself this was a great success & I was over the moon with what we had achieved up to this point. 

Due to family & work life music took a back seat up to 2009 when I finally decided to form a live version of AREA 39 & take Stand Alone Together on the road, the live band just like the studio band was full of great musicians & a great vocalist. We managed to perform a good run of UK live dates before I decided it was time for some new music.

It took between 2012 & 2020 for the next album to be composed & recorded but this time I managed to record all guitars, bass & orchestral parts myself bringing in yet again another great vocalist, well actually she was out of this world & I also brought in really great rock drummer.

This time the vibe was very much more a rock/orchestral sound & with tunes about the Titanic & the Dambusters I decided to call the album Adaptations. The full album is now available on soundcloud free to download.

Here we are now in 2025 and some demos that I have been working on for a few months have started to take shape and they are very different from any of my previous work to date.

These tunes take on a more driving sound, using synths mixed with guitars, is it Alternative? Is it pop? Is it Dance? I'm not sure what genre these tunes are; so, I will let the listeners decide.

I am also using these demos to try and find musicians who like what I've started and would maybe like to get involved to help finish them.

Any vocalists, keys/synth players, guitarists who like what im doing please contact me.

What you see and hear before you is the result of my random musical inspirations. Lightly processed and now set free into the world. Enjoy.

BUNGALOW BUMS are from Omsk in southern Siberia. They’ve been around since 2006, when they originally cranked out songs under the direct influence of britpop and US rock. With time, however, their interests and influences have moved backwards through the history books. Their listed idols begin with the time-tested threesome of The Stooges, MC5, and the New York Dolls. Somewhere in this post, therefore, the term garage rock is bound to pop up. And indeed the band tell us, almost immediately: “We soon developed a love for classic garage rock from the 1960s in all its forms.”

We like slow heavy riffs. We like playing them more times than is entirely  necessary.

These are demo tracks from our upcoming debut EP.
