The Computers

The Computers are a high-energy rock n' roll band known for their dynamic fusion of punk, garage, and soul influences. Hailing from Exeter, Devon, UK, the group initially came together in the late 2000s, quickly building a reputation for their vigorous live shows and sharp attire—often donning smart shirts and ties, contrasting the raw intensity of their music. Over the years, the band has undergone a sonic evolution, reflected in their varied discography, which ranges from abrasive punk to melody-laden rock with a soulful twist.

Their 2011 album, "This is the Computers," marks an early piece of their body of work, characterized by a more hardcore punk sound that would later give way to a cleaner, more refined edge in "Love Triangles, Hate Squares" (2013). This album showcased a progression towards catchier, more rhythmically-driven songs, without losing the edge that defined their beginnings. Continuously blurring genre lines, The Computers kept fans on their toes with subsequent releases like "Birth / Death" (2016) and singles such as "Want the News? Here's the Blues" and "Mr. Saturday Night." The latter works reveal an unabashed embrace of classic rock 'n' roll blended with modern punk energy, a combination that has solidified their reputation within the UK music scene. With lyrics that often grapple with themes of identity, society, and the human condition, as found in tracks like "Group Identity" and the defiant "Music Is Dead," The Computers both challenge and entertain, ensuring their music resonates with a sense of authenticity and rambunctious zeal.
