Make Me Holy

What this episode covers

After honing their uniquely emotive and eclectic take on the hardcore-metal blueprint and with a popular back catalogue behind them, Aphid return with a new line-up and a set of well-developed new material. Having already extensively gigged the London circuit at venues such as The Underworld, The Barfly, The Garage and twice headlining The LA2/Mean Fiddler, support slots followed with the likes of Hundred Reasons, Hell Is For Heroes, Lost Prophets and Raging Speedhorn Selling over a thousand copies of their debut EP within the first eight weeks of it's release, and with their current album 'Ten South' selling well, Aphid have built themselves an enviable fan base across Surrey and the south west of London. Original members, drummer Jack Fletcher and vocalist Sanj Surati have been joined by Tom Halley and Steve Ling on bass and guitar respectively. Jack and Sanj have been playing with Aphid since it's formation in 1998, with Tom joining in late 2003 after both playing with Jack in other projects and having been an Aphid enthusiast since the start. After playing for a six-piece black-metal band in Sheffield, Steve came into contact with the band while at the Guitar Institute in Acton, and joined Aphid in 2004
