A history

1978-2004: Inspired by late seventies/early eighties no-wave punk sounds and with a fascination with all things psychedelic and krautrock their early attempts at creating the ‘song’ proved difficult. With a new definition of the ‘song’, the ‘band’ was happening. All of the group had aspirations to break out a new modern sound and taking the sheer raw energy of their influences, matching it with their noise-damaged shifting guitars, dynamic multi-percussion and accidental vocal bursts, Cap Pas Cap was an infant.

Then it was 2005. Cap Pas Cap began playing live with a truly catastrophic show in March. This was their first show which featured a lot of whiskey. From this point onward they embraced their unorthodox efforts at making pop music and decided to carry on as they had originally started - with a complete disregard for any conventional standards. That June they played a show with new friends Les Georges Leningrad who reinforced to them that the disorder was okay, once you add keyboard. They were okay now and anxiously went forward with a new motto ‘the opposite is operative’.

Hello 20,006: Cap Pas Cap have played numerous critically acclaimed shows in Ireland and the UK with Numbers, Erase Errata, The Presets, The Go! Team, GOSSIP, Crystal Castles, Teenagers, Au Revoir Simone, Mika Miko, No Age and an appearance at the legendary Reading Festival. Winter arts and crafts for new record sleeves means cut, fold, stick multiply by two hundred fifty.
