Sitting somewhere between 00’s indie and 80’s hardcore, Bruise Control have carved themselves an unlikely name in DIY punk, thanks to a handful of self-produced releases and a notoriety for chaotic live shows. Initially formed in late 2018, the groups foundations were strong - separate veterans of the Manchester punk scene, the core trio of Jim Taylor, Devon Cryer and Tommy Victor Morris originally set out to create classic garage punk, influenced by the likes of Gøggs, Nancy and Dead Moon. After the addition of guitarist Niall Griffin and bassist Ru Gilfillan, the band honed in on a new sound, taking on more melodic and contemporary influences. the band bridges the gap between the traditional and the experimental on their debut full length album, 'Useless For Something' - a catalogue of genre-mashed instrumentals, glued together by Jim Taylor's down-to-earth lyrics and ferocious delivery.
