Picture this: a gorgeous little town on the West Coast of Scotland. It's got a beach, lovely parks, cheerful tourist attractions and Scotland's best-loved poet Robert Burns. This place is Ayrshire. It's not exactly the setting for chunky riffs, beers, gigs and laughs but this little seaside town has been quietly making progress on the music front. This is where metal band Sucioperro met, this is where they make music and for a while now Ayrshire's held it's own and seems to be producing much music finery as of late.

The band released their debut EP 'Why Bliss Destroy' in October 2002. Only 200 copies where pressed and they sold out in no time at all. The EP also featured Simon Neil (also an Ayrshire lad) of Biffy Clyro doing vocals on 3 tracks. Their latest rock offering is titled 'The Hidden Perils of Dancing'.

Things are looking up and up for the boys from Ayrshire. They play a mean live show, are gaining more and more fans, have begun to tour England and are playing London more regularly as well as Scotland and are growing all the time.
