Bark Psychosis

Bark Psychosis are an English post-rock band from East London formed in 1986. Graham Sutton is the core of the group, supported by a dynamic roster of musicians. The line up for the seminal album Hex included Graham Sutton, Daniel Gish, John Ling, and Mark Simnett. Current members include Sutton, Colin Bradley, Lee Harris, and others. Formed as a Napalm Death cover band when Sutton, Ling, and Simnett were in their teens, they released several singles and EPs from 1988 to 1994. The band released their first album Hex in 1994. Embedded in lush electronic sampling and textures and accented with electric guitars, piano, and a string quartet, they developed a singularly unique and varied sound. Bark Psychosis is one of the bands that Simon Reynolds mentioned when coining post-rock as a genre in 1994. Gish and Ling both dropped out as a result of the stress associated with making an album, followed later by Simnett. Graham Sutton went on to record a drum and bass record under the name Boymerang. After a ten year hiatus, Bark Psychosis returned with ///Codename: Dustsucker in 2004, which featured an entirely new line-up, including former Talk Talk drummer Lee Harris replacing Simnett.
