- Taint are a three-piece, UK based hardcore/rock/metal band. Their unique sound journeys through elements of sludge, modern metal, hardcore punk, doom, and stoner rock. They formed in 1994 as teenagers in the South Wales DIY punk/metal scene (see below), yet are to some degree children of classic rock. They produced a string of demos, compilation features, and split releases over eleven years honouring the British rock underground until their much anticipated first full length album was released in 2005. As a band, Taint have never limited themselves to the influences of their DIY contemporaries but are more inclusive and broad in their tastes and style. In this sense neither are they an amalgamation of the many influences and bands they have toured with. They have skillfully developed a very individual changeable style despite taking many characteristics on board with open minds. Taint are often labelled with the tag of 'stoner rock' and, though truthful in part, it is genuinely difficult to comfortably slot their unpredictable "moving pieces of art" into any specific genre. Aggressive, fast, sludgy, doomy, riff-laden, groovy, involving, fierce, brutal, contemplative and melodic are all words that have been used to accurately describe their music in terms of movement and progression throughout. Perhaps non-commercial, certainly involving and diverse, Taint have taken their punk-based riffs to a new level that successfully carry, emote and intrigue the listener.
