Graveltrap were born out of the cultural wastelend of Milton Keynes in 1999, an age when rock music was for the un-cool and punk chains were nicked from your dog, not sewn in to trendy jeans.... Initially nfluenced by Therapy, Nirvana and Greenday they promptly rose the local ranks of the Milton Keynes scene to regularly sell out the Pitz becoming one of the cities most popular bands through their energetic live show and strong melodic songs about alienation and problems of being a teenaged misfit in MK.

In 2003 they got associated with the Ska scene (despite never having played ska), signing to Moonska Europe and have since been at the the forefront of the UK punk rock scene, with one album distributed internationally through Moonska and many more releases through other underground UK punk labels. Debut album 'Concrete & Udder Chaos' produced by Iain Wetherell (Goober Patrol, Capdown, Vanilla Pod) brought together a collection of their teenaged anthems, spawning the pop-punk video stomper S.R.J. which topped the Scuzz charts in 2003 beating off Metallica and Less Than Jake for three weeks!. Other tracks off the album have been included on various compilations, most notibly Metal Hammers cover CD 'Sounds of the Underground' in Dec '03 and Compunktion 1 & 2 released on Sucka-Punch.
2003 - 2004 saw them on a heavy touring schedule with numerous Moonska package tour appearances out on the road with the likes of Spunge, Never Heard Of It, Whitmore and Mixtwitch and large shows with Bowling for Soup, Lars Fredricksen, Capdown and Therapy at the National Adventure Sports Show. 2005 saw them concentrate on new material yet still consistently building up a loyal fan base across the UK through their shows. Their early blink-esqu pop-punk sound matured to a show a band capable of much more than the standard formula, getting back in touch with their rocky roots, the riffs and the breakdowns in the vein of Rise Against and Alkaline Trio but still displaying the big chorus's and keen ear for a catchy song evident through out all of Graveltraps music. Ever determined to prove the UK punk rock scene can once again be every bit as vital as the US scene, Graveltrap follow in the foot steps of the bands that have re-carved the scene - King Prawn (rip) Capdown & [spunge] and with a new ep on their own label New City Noise causing a stir in the underground and street teams spreading the word, GRAVELTRAP's live show has been described as 'blistering, energetic, passionate and powerful' and they will be smashing their way around the country near you soon....

Primal Fear
Graveltrap Lyrics
Why cant people accept reality?
Is it cause of primal fear?
Of acceptance in normality
Acting out that role again
With your mind you can trap reality
Deep amongst your dark secrets
Scared of finding originality
Even though its why we're here
(Whoa)
Strange how all you want to be
(Whoa)
Victims of authority
I don't want to live a lie again, oh no
Even if it means we cant be friends, wh-oa
Someday I will find the righteous way, even if its not today,
I know that I'll be ok, cause I am what I portray,
Living life from the heart, don't be scared to play your part,
Cause you gotta be who you are
Why is the world so fucking ignorant,
And complacent to fall in line?
Who do you think controls normality?
Have you never questioned why?
Are you happy with the way you're living?
Never thought to 'rock the boat'?
We all want security and homes to live in,
But then all you can do is vote.

Our Lady of Guadalupe Botanical Garden Project
This band would make my personal top 10 list. I'm glad Judas Priest turned down this guy - that allowed us to have a whole bunch of new music.
