Profiles

Vex red itch


Vex Red are a band from Aldershot, England who merged hard rock with electronica. They were signed to US Producer Ross Robinson's Virgin Records Imprint record label, I Am, after sending a demo EP to Robinson. They litigated their way off the label in late 2002, and singer Terry Abbott formed a new band Septembre. Some of the remaining members went on to form another new band, Scenes. Ben Calvert has also played with Killing Joke and more recently, Malpractice – which also contains Mark Chapman, (an ex-member of A) and Adam F. Ben Calvert is now the drummer for Calvin Harris. Guitarists Ant Forbes and Nick Goulding both Tour Manage bands. Bassist Keith Lambert played a brief stint with Martin Grech and now works in computers.
