Biography
Dead Shed Jokers
Effective period / Period of releases: 2019
Alternative Rock band from Aberdare / Merthyr Tydfil - South Wales UK"Timeless immediate, and utterly vital the Dead Shed Jokers are a rare beast - at once original and yet somehow not of this time" (Robbie Edwards - NME/The Fly)
"Shine Peyote Smile through a big prism and you would see a modern rock spectrum refracted; occasional Nick Cave-isms, Queens Of The Stone Age swagger, huge post-Zeppelin riffs and dramatic vocals that add up to a pure headbanger’s delight" (Miniature Music Press ***)
"When a band can soak up as many influences as these boys obviously have and process them in such a way that they can deliver a sound as individual as this, then that's simply a great thing..'Peyote Smile' is a standout debut record" (UberRock)
"This is a great album, with superb riffs and solid sound. Rock as it should be. Highly recommended." (Rock Re-generation)
"Peyote Smile is so wonderfully crafted, it's hard to believe it's a debut album.... it's it's just an absolute joy to listen to." (Temporarily Available, 10/10)
"A perfect blend of scuzzy guitars bursting with hooks that glide from the slow and sedate into a fuzzy wave of beats and riffs that are timeless" (Room Thirteen, 10/13)
“The musicianship of this band is exceptional" (Valley Cat Press)
