Tour and album for Pop Will Eat Itself

Article written by Paul M - Jul 27, 2011

Pop Before They Ate Themselves

Pop Will Eat Itself have a 25th Anniversary revival lined up with a UK tour and new album 'New Noise Designed By A Sadist' released October 3rd on Cooking Vinyl.

The revival is presented by principal songwriter and co-frontman Graham Crabb, accompanied by three new members. Crabb said:

“It had been my desire to revive Pop Will Eat Itself for a number of years but there came a point when it was clear the original band members wouldn't be committing to any future project in the band's name. I saw this as a sad waste, as I felt I had armed myself with the best batch of songs I've ever written, and felt I still had a lot to prove. I would like nothing better than to elevate PWEI to a higher level than before. That might be ambitious but that's the way I am.”

The line up is as follows:

Lead Vocals- Graham Crabb

Co-Vocalist- Mary Byker- “I have known Mary since his days with Gaye Bykers On Acid, fellow Midlanders who started out around the same time as PWEI. He always was a likeable fella and charmed his way into Pigface in the US, before co-fronting UK electronic band Apollo 440. Now living in Brazil where he has opened a bar, and still writes & records as Magnetic Empire with DJ Harry K. He was an automatic first choice.”

Drummer- Jason Bowld- “I always admired Jason's drumming in Pitchshifter and jumped at the chance of using him on the new PWEI record. He's now an in-demand session drummer and recently stood in for Bullet For My Valentine on their most recent tour. Live, he's going to be awesome.”

Bassist /Guitarist- Tim Muddiman- “Tim is a very busy musician who was recommended by a mutual friend. He plays in Gary Numan's band, is part of Sulpher with The Prodigy's live guitarist and also works as an up and coming producer, credited on an Ade Fenton Remix for Slash and Fergie.”
