Pretty Vicious emerged as a raw and energetic force in the British rock scene from the small Welsh town of Merthyr Tydfil. Formed in 2014 when its members were just in their mid-teens, the band quickly gained attention for their spirited and raucous sound. Comprising Brad Griffiths (vocals and guitar), Thomas McCarthy (guitar), Jarvis Morgan (bass), and Elliot Jones (drums), Pretty Vicious combined the youthful exuberance of indie rock with the aggression of punk, capturing the frustrations and aspirations of their generation.

The group's initial releases, like "Cave Song" from their debut EP and the blistering single "Are You Ready For Me," established their standing in the rock panorama, blending memorable riffs with punchy lyrics. Their reputation grew, leading to a signing with a major label and the release of their full-length album, "Beauty Of Youth," in 2019. The album showcased the band's growth while maintaining the vitality that had become their hallmark, a fact echoed in tracks such as "Blister," "National Plastics," and "It’s Always There." Although Pretty Vicious' journey has been marked by the typical turbulence of rock ‘n’ roll careers, their music continues to resonate with fans looking for the raw edge and authentic voice of modern rock.
