The members
of Nitch, vocalist/synth James Tuck, guitarist Kris Livall, bassist
Matthew James and drummer Ben Stiff, use their limited resources,
to trya and craft atmospheric electronica with gritty, muscular riffs.
They claim the end result pushes the boundary of melding the avant-garde
with contemporary metal.
Based
around the vision of front man James Tuck, Nitch started as a solo
project in 2000 whilst James was studying for a music degree at
University.
In the winter of 2002, James hooked up with his long time friends
(whom heÂ’d been in a sixth form band back in 1998) to complete
the line-up. Before Matt, Kris and Ben joined NITCH they were the
music behind rap-metal outfit MISS:SPELT YOOF.
Influenced
and inspired by artists as diverse as Nine Inch Nails, David Bowie
and Aphex Twin to Pantera, Gary Numan and Metallica.
To
Nitch, safety is not an option. As Front man James Tuck says "The
best quote I can think of is from Wayne's World - 'Led Zeppelin
didn't write tunes everybody liked - they left that to the Bee Gees'.
Too many bands concentrate on being liked, rather than being their
selves."
of Nitch at The Priors Inn in Bury St Edmunds.
