about

Geordie post hardcore' heavily influenced by the Dischord and Touch & Go back catalogues. Also present is a love of the heavier, melodic elements in Torche, Harvey Milk, Unwound, Cave In or Swervedriver, and local NE legends like Leatherface & Crane = END NOW's patter.

Play along in:
C# / F# / B / F# / C# / C#

Pete (guitar) and Stu (vocals) both played in Marzuraan; local head Jerome played bass and Graham (one man band) Thompson (Ballpeen; Jinn; Grace; Jimmy Floyd Hasselbind) drummed for the most part.

The band went through 5 drummers by the end of their 2 year period of active inactivity in 2012.

Dedicated to Steev Lowes

"a tantalising “what if” to connoisseurs of UK hardcore/post-punk." (Predominance 16, www.thepensivequill.com/2022/04/predominance-16.html?fbclid=IwAR2zCamLsEvjoDZWe3jSWY-oAsZo3a9sNtDGgFmOaK9Jfkaw3hNml_-C7Zg)

"The sound of shattered glass amid an all-in brawl inside some backwater boozer." (Sun 13, sun-13.com/2022/04/22/end-now-half-live/)
