RECKLESS ATTITUDE!Super heavy
Northampton bandNARCISSISTIC EXISTENCE
are here to dominatewith heavy riffs andsimply insane bass.
Prepare yourself.
As I arrive at the bands sunday afternoon practice at Big Noise, Northampton with the bassist Steven Raison, I finally get to meet the rest of the band members. They
appear to already be completely envolved in the rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle with various stages of hangovers, and some
even still a bit wasted. Phil Walker, vocalistcarries a bag of beers to drink during practice...typical.
The other band members are lounging around in the waiting area, fully in deep discusion about what their
upcoming practice will consist of. Clearly thehangovers aren’t a problem with these guys. I ask
Steven how he thought of the band, for him to turn round and simply say “I dunno man” as he flicks his hair,
“We’re just...we’re just boring a**-people man.”
Talking to the band a little more, I then asked how they all met...some pretty insane. “Me and Steven met at a DevilDriver concert!” Phil laughed out. “Yeah, where I PUNCHED YOU IN THE FACE!” Steven jumped and
pointed at Phil. Liam Wilkinson and Jamie Wikinsonare brothers, whereas the other band members met through
friends and the other members.Shane Thomas is the most recent member of the band
with his kick-a** screamsThe main influences of this band are artists such as Lamb Of God, Metallica and Slipknot, which are all
heavy as hell!!
They plan to just generally go with the flow since they seem to be gaining fans quickly with barely making any
effort and generally making absolutely awesomemusic. “Yeah, we’re pretty happy that we have so many fans already, we plan to tour the whole of England soon
since we’ve had quite a few requests.” Says Micheal “Smike” Hashim, lead guitarist.
You guys follow them on their band page onFacebook and keep a watch out for these
guys...it’s going to be imense!Just search ‘Narcissistic Existence’ into
Facebook to find them.
