This is one of the most talked about bands you've never heard of, Thee Spivs have been playing raw and primal garage punk music all over London for the last three years in any venue, party or street that will take them.
After forming in 2007, members, Ben Edge (Guit/Vox) Dan May (bass) and Steve Coley (drums) quickly gained a reputation for their energetic and unpredictable live performances. They met up with Liam Watson from ToeRag studios in 2009 and recorded a few tracks of which two tracks came out as a limited one off 7" on 1965 records in late 2009.
After a successful European tour in spring 2010 they set off recording their debut album, Taped Up which is now complete and ready to be released on Damaged Goods in November 2010.
It features 14 tracks (12 on the vinyl) including their first single 'It's True' plus their new single 'I Don't Want It'. It's an edgy mix of Punk, Garage and a bit of Rock 'N' Roll, it's a storming debut!

Thee Spivs are back with their third album in as many years and they've honed their canny blend of trad punk, garage punk, post punk, new wave, and pub rock to create a magnificently varied album. The album is a natural progression from their critically acclaimed debut Taped Up and last year's Black and White Memories. The Crowds and The Sounds is instantly more melodic and you can see additional influences from the very British qualities of The Kinks. The songs are slowed down and slightly longer in length, with a lot more thought and work in to each one than the furiously fast, punchy numbers from their early records.
