The CYANIDE DOLLS

BIOGRAPHY:

Manic Street Preachers influenced act formed in 1992 by David Gow (drums), Gary Miller (bass), Kevin O'Donnell (guitar) & Michael Thom (vocals / guitar). The original vocalist, Dav Jones, was thrown out for being "too crap at singing". The band continued to play until 1995, after which Gow & Miller joined Arab Strap, with Gow later forming Sons & Daughters. Rumour has it that promoter and future Franz Ferdinand frontman Alex Kapranos once "punched out" one of the band for being "difficult".
