Water Never Waits
Sickboy is a garage folk/punk trio that plays original, overdriven music with passion and poetry. Sickboy was formed by singer/guitarist Mark Spence in 2001 in Atlanta, where they left behind a quickly forgotten legacy of kicking around, playing nearly every venue in town, replacing drummers, never getting a gig in Athens, getting nowhere, releasing singles, shouting at the top of their lungs, releasing an EP, and always writing new material. After Mark got tired of 5 years of beating his head against a wall, he untangled himself from the kudzu and wound up in Australia in January of 2006, where he started putting a new trio together, and that has made all the difference in the world. Touring behind the previous EP, VANITY & VELOCITY, took them to most of the major cities around Oz, and now their latest offering, WATER NEVER WAITS, should keep them going for a while longer. Sickboy is a band that wants everything, expects nothing, and is getting close to both. Here's some reviews for you critical types...
