The Good Hurt was formed in Manchester late in 2006 and quickly got militant about creating the best sounds and songs they possibly could. They dig all genres except New Jack Swing which gets them agitated.
Their sentiments are as diverse as their influences and the scientific, romantic, realistic, cinematic and nihilistic sides to life are all well explored.
Prescription No 1, their first EP, easily showcases their ability to be super-punk oiks one minute (check out Kick This Habit) while classic and well structured the next (check Good Souls). Recording and mixing the EP in one day has made sure that the energy has went straight to the recording...no tricks - it's all playing.The Good Hurt don't contrive any sort of identity and instead dig the challenge of breeding an eclectic yet coherent output. They are as likely to use a wobbly synth or accordion as they are a distorted guitar.
Each live show gets better than the last and these guys are set for bigger things in 2007.
