Shock Induction began last year after Kieran brought back a Martin guitar from the States. Jim wanted to see it, so after several months, Kieran duly took it round to Jim's gaff, where there happened to be a full drum kit set up. Meanwhile, Paul wanted a gander too, and just happened to stroll in from a drum lesson. Jim invited Kieran to pick up a bass, whilst Paul wandered over to the drums, and Jim did what comes naturally, picking up his lead guitar. The wheels were now set in motion for the greatest phenomenon in the North since the invention of the badger.Kieran had some songs he had written over the last few years so the three fellow Pisceans set about bringing these to life. After a while they decided to expand the line up. Kieran dragged Colin out of retirement, who he knew through an old band they used to be in together in the late 80's (The Vinyl Martyrs). They have now recruited a keyboard player, Steve, and had their first rehearsal as a five piece on the 8th January.
