Mainline

There are at least two bands called Mainline:
1) A six-piece guitar band from Dublin, Ireland. A great rock band with a guitar-centric groove that pummels out full-on rock 'n' roll with a psychedelic/shoegaze twist.
They are now called The Brothers Movement.
Heavy-duty guitars and growling vocals roll along with a chugging beat reminiscent of The Velvet Underground and My Bloody Valentine.

Band members are:
NEIL PAXTON - electric guitar/vox
DANDA - drums/percussion/vox
SCOTT GLENNON - electric guitar
CONOR PAXTON - bass guitar
PATRICK MCHUGH - electric guitar
DERICK O NEILL - keys/synth

The band's "Where The Ghosts Meet" debut EP was released on 9 March 2007.

They have in the past supported bands including The Brian Jonestown Massacre and in April 2007 toured the UK as support to Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.

2) A three-piece rock 'n' roll band from Helsinki, Finland. Formed in 2002, Mainline's aim was from the first rehearsal to play such music that the guys themselves love and that would be powerful and loud enough to best be measured on the Richter scale. The music is probably best described as energetic, action-packed straight-forward rock n´roll with influences from both metal, hard rock and punk.

After some booze-ridden recording sessions the debute album 'Mainline' was released 2003 and received quite approving comments by the critics and the fans. Since then Mainline has played a number of kick-ass gigs and is currently working on pre-production of their second album. The new single 'Devil made me do it/Let it bleed' was released February 2007 and it shows a darker, heavier and rougher side of the band.

Band members are:
Wacky-T - Vocals and guitars
Johnny Bombers - Drums
Uncle Sam - Bass
