Neils Children

Neils Children were a London-based post-punk revival band active in the early 2000s, known for their raw, experimental edge and brooding sonic textures. Emerging from the same fertile UK underground that birthed acts like The Horrors and These New Puritans, they blended jagged guitar work, motorik rhythms, and nihilistic lyricism across releases like *Dimly Lit* and *Reduction*. Frontman John Linger’s deadpan vocals and the band’s penchant for minimalist artwork cemented their cult status among garage-rock enthusiasts.

Though never breaking mainstream, their dissonant yet danceable tracks like *Visit-Revisited* and *Trust You* became sleeper hits in indie circles, influencing later DIY acts. After scattered releases including the *Serial Music* series and the wistful *Never Could Be Any Other Way (Audiotape)*, the band dissolved in 2008, leaving behind a discography that still crackles with unpolished urgency. Their 2020s-era streaming rediscovery proves their ahead-of-their-time vibe still resonates.
