Biographie

Formed originally during the late 70's in Stoke-on-Trent by the twins Terry (Tezz) and Tony (Bones) Roberts along with Roy (Rainy) Wainright and drummer Tony (Acko) Axon, Discharge became one of the new breed of punk bands amongst the oncoming onslaught of N.W.O.B.H.M. (New Wave of British Heavy Metal). Frontman Kelvin (Cal) Morris was recruited as the decade drew to its close with Tezz switching from vocals to drums as Acko exited. With the help of Tanya Rich introducing the lads to Clay Records owner Mike Stone, little did anyone know after signing the band he would produce what would soon become Britain's most visual, thunderous stamps to break the hardcore soundbarrier worldwide.


After many releases, personnel and style changes throughout their career, the original line-up of Cal, Bones, Rainy and Tezz recorded DISCHARGE for Sanctuary Records in 2002 for a very short-lived reunion. Cal chose not to tour, so the band approached Anthony (Rat) Martin from The Varukers and employed him on the mic to tour huge tracts of land once again. The band continue their influential legacy in the 21st century after releasing the 3 song ep of new material entitled BEGINNING OF THE END on Thunk Records was barely a glimpse into their new direction, as their upcoming DISENSITISE lp is unleashed August 2008 . -- Chris Corkum
