New Cape Town Punk: Colour Bone Black - Different


When Rockwell – of Fuzigish fame – moved to Cape Town, he never expected he would meet a couple o' booze-loving punks with an inkling of talent. The Pissups, on hiatus while drummer Marc drank warm beer in Vietnam, had some spare creativity.

They teamed up with the bassist-turned-singer to create something characterised by constant change. In a strange time for the world, the musicians bled their expressionist impulse into good ol' Punk Rock. The sort you could hear ringing out of a late-90's garage over the sound of kickflips. Thus born Colour Bone Black. Inspired by true events.

Their first single: Different, was written apart, through screens, across African and Asian continents, with rusty strings and old microphones. But the essence of the band is the raw emotion and simple expression of ideas. Stripped down, loud, and real.

The band is signed to Red Ambulance, and will be working hard through these uncertain times to keep bringing the noise. New single, and album coming soon.
