Gonzoid comprises
us, David Bruno and Paul Mulholland-Helme You can see us in
the picture on holiday in Mexico db is the one smoking, whilst
Paul sits.
We've been playing together since before time. 'Alternative
experimental pop' is how we''ve been told we should define ourselves
by someone who is wrong.
We object to the term 'pop' as that implies we have done something
with a view to it becoming popular and we have never done that,
the music we create is nothing if not sincere, it is created
with no market or genre in mind, 'product placement' is the
last thing we think about, so
'Alternative, experimental, accessable, ambient, rock with punk
ethics'
is closer to the mark, bit of a mouthful though and not very
accurate.
The yellow picture is db struggling with new ideas coming from
his head attena.
Primarily we are about guitars and noise, not necessarily in
that order.
Our first band proper was the Immoral Majority, we did all our
rehearsing live and built a reputation as a fine support act.
It didnt matter how bad you were we would make you sound good.
That was in 1981 we have both been actively involved in musical
enterprises ever since but none that came close to fulfilling
the creative urge as what we do now does.
"Gonzoid exists as a cathartic outlet for the wreckage
that is existence, for those of us who never grow up who were
part of the 'Lets party because we will all be atomised by the
Americans or the Russians or someone' generation and for anyone
else. Gonzoid exists because it has to, there is really no choice.
We were always Gonzoid and we probably always will be."
