This is the end of the ongoing series of Glasgow Noise bands, at least for now.
This final instalment features the band DeSalvo.
Desalvo formed from the ashes of several Glasgow/Edinburgh bands: Allan Stewart (future Idlewild guitarist); Alex Grant (former PH Family & part-time Idlewild bassist); original vocals - Fraser Lumsden (former PH Family vocalist); replacement vocals - P6 (former Stretchheads & PH Family vocalist); & Richie Dempsey (former Stretchheads drummer).
Desalvo was originally strongly influenced by US post-hardcore bands such as Helmet & Tad. They signed to Mogwai’s label Rock Action Records. Their style has been compared to The Jesus Lizard. Listen & decide for yourself.
