25 is
a psychedelic rock band formed early 2008 in Oxford,
England by bass guitarist Joe Chapman, singer Russell
Denham, guitarist and synth player Chris Monger,
drummer Andy Proper and guitarist Sunny Singh.
The
band also occasionally features Nick Gray, a Doctor
of music from London, on violin.
Described
as 'slowmotion narcotic groove rock' by the local music
press, SPIRAL 25’s sound draws from diverse influences
ranging from the psychedelic bands of the 1960s such as 13th
Floor Elevators and The Velvet Underground to space
rock pioneers Hawkwind, shoegaze & psychedelic bands of
the 1980s/1990s - Loop, Spacemen 3, Ride,
The Jesus & Mary Chain, early 1990s British bands
like The Verve and The Stone Roses right through
to today's psych/psychedelic rock bands such as The Black
Angels, The Warlocks, and Black Rebel Motorcycle
Club.
Spiral
25 released their first homemade E. P. on Saturday 31st January
2009 with a special gig at The Cellar.
