Chris Atkinson - vocals / guitar
Hey Chris here, I play guitar and sing in Idiocentric. I was one of the first to join the band, my idol is Billy Joe Armstrong and favourite band is Fall Out Boy. My favourite gig was Sacred at the Temple - where we headlined and thanks to Warren (Louies dad) and the other people who helped to organise it. I want to continue playing with the band - next year we all will probably be going to Newcastle college to study music - we hope to do more gigs and then...
Louie Crake - bass - unique image
Hello, my favourite bands are Dragonforce, Nofx, The Matches and System of a Down. I like all kinds of music really - my tastes include older stuff like the Smiths, Joy Division, Iron Maiden and I like some of the lesser known stuff coming out of Ibiza - my favourite place. I have a unique image- so everybody tells me - but I don’t like being a sheep. Inspirational figures include, fat mike, don Vito, system of a down and Steve Harris. I am also interested in basketball, art, the paranormal and chemistry. I hope to go to Newcastle college next year then I really want to go to York university. My dislikes are spiders, jellyfish and crabs!!! I want to do more gigs.
Tim Forster - lead guitar and diary keeper
I have been playing guitar for 2 years now and I am still looking to improve. My influences for my guitar playing are: Eric Clapton, Paul Kossoff, Angus Young and some others. Ambition in life?? Apart from owning a dog - is to be well known with many albums and touring all over. My other interests - apart from my girlfriend - hanging out with band and other mates and generally having a good time.
Andy Coleman - aka - SCD - sexy/stupid Canadian drummer
Hey I am Andy - I am Canadian and I’m the drummer with the band. My interests other than the band are going out with friends and practicing to improve with the drums. My inspiration comes from Travis Barker from Blink 182. My favourite bands are Fall Out Boy, Blink 182, Newfound Glory and System of a Down. I also like dressing up!!!
