Paper Cut Out
PAPER CUT OUT is a band residing in Newcastle Upon Tyne, U.K., formed about four years ago by Barry Wardle (Bass/Vocal), John Coburn (Drums) and Adam Gilhespy (Guitar/Vocal)
Their music is described as "tightly controlled chaos" and "near unintelligible yet strangely captivating". A compelling live band, their performances "disconcerting and confrontational". "Never mind stage presence, this band have venue presence".
Their recorded output consists of one, long sold out double A side 7"single ('Rats/Less A Roof, More A Ceiling, released on Jealous Records in 2003), and a handful of self released material.
What the press say:
It’s obviously something special. To say this band have stage presence would be doing them an injustice, these guys have venue presence. Constantly moving and intensely passionate. They’re rocking out and they’re loving it. So are we. Fast, tight, innovative. Astounding. If only it’d lasted longer. Clocking off after around 25 minutes, this is still one of the most enjoyable sets I’ve EVER seen." Michael Wilson for BBC Northern Ireland, review of live show.
"...a trio of little conventional jazz." Badly translated Spanish website
"If Gang Of Four were a red dwarf (Paper Cut Out) would be their neutron star." Audience member in conversation after a performance in Dublin
