About Gaye Bykers On Acid

Gaye Bykers On Acid formed in Leicester in the mid-1980s and became closely associated with the grebo scene, mixing punk and psychedelic rock with samples, dance rhythms and a deliberately unruly visual identity.

Across Drill Your Own Hole, Stewed to the Gills, Cancer Planet Mission and Pernicious Nonsense, the band moved between noisy alternative rock, electronics and harder-edged material while retaining a mischievous punk sensibility. Their use of alter egos such as Rektüm and Lesbian Dopeheads on Mopeds extended the same irreverence beyond the records themselves.
