CORK

2004 -

OVERVIEW Punk rock band from Cork STANTON'S GRAVE is a four-piece Punk Rock band from Cork origianlly formed in 2004. They started when Anthony moved back to Cork after having lived in Limerick and then Amsterdam for a period. He got in touch with Eoin (EL BASTARDO, [R]OAS) about jamming and it all started from there. Over the next few years they tried out a few different styles such as Hardcore, Crust and Sludge. After some line-up changes Dan joined on bass in 2007 and they finally started to settle into their current Punk Rock sound. Some songs were written. Gigs were played. Later in 2009 Dave Senior (RULERS OF THE PLANET, EMPIRE OF THIEVES) joined as lead guitarist. They have one release to date called ‘Homemade Demos (2008-2009)’, although they say it’s not a proper release as such. More a collection of their first takes at home recordings, all done in Fat Tony’s garage. The DIY approach to recording seems to be an important feature and part of the band’s sound and writing. The 8-track demo is available free online through the bands various website. 2004 - Band formed 2007 - Dan Griffin joins the band on Bass Guitar 2009 - Dave Senior joins the band on Guitar - Release of 'Homemade Demos' promo 2012 - Release of '' as a split single with Slugbait.
