"Hailing
from Southend-on-Sea, Misnomer formed in 1999 primarily to experiment
with new sounds and ideas. John Lacey, originally from Scotland, was working
with keyboards and drum samples. After several months of defining a new
genre, Electro-Punk, gigs were on the horizon and John needed a band.
He needed look no further than his brother, 16-year-old James. His teenage
enthusiasm and obsessions with all things "rock" added a powerful
dimension to the Misnomer sound. For a band so young, they had already
developed a sound lying between New Order's melodic rhythms and Radiohead's
angst and power, showing a musical maturity way beyond their teenage years.
After a number of successful gigs, they were developing a deservedly good
reputation within the London circuit, and on the internet, where their
tracks were receiving thousands of downloads a week. Russian bass player
Anton was a later addition - seeing the band at a live |
