SONIC BOOM SIX appeared on the Manchester punk scene in April 2002 and set about establishing a loyal local following with their own Sonic Boom Collective gigs and supports with the likes of Capdown, Jesse James, Lightyear and Shootin Goon.

It is fiendishly difficult to convey their sound through words alone. 'Miss Dynamite fronting Capdown' has been one of the closest attempts to nail it; the truth is that SB6 are a group in the tradition of UK punk bands such as The Specials, The Clash and King Prawn that push the musical envelope by mixing contemporary underground sounds of the UK with a rocking live show. Sonic Boom Six's genre-terrorism attacks the urban sounds of ragga, hip-hop, bhangra and jungle, adds a blast of dub and reggae and detonates with a heavy helping of hardcore punk rock.

Their self-titled demo was recorded with Jerry 'Dutchmaster' Melchers (Capdown, King Prawn) and self-released in October 2002. To support the record, SB6 toured the UK with New York ska veterans The Toasters, London Wildstyle merchants King Prawn, Widnes Art Wizards Zen Baseballbat as well as touring with (and appearing as the backing band!) with NYC ragga-core exponent Coolie Ranx (ex-Pilfers).

The debut EP 'Sonic Boom Six: The Turbo EP' is dropping in September 2003 on Moonska Europe just in time for the label's infamous UK tour. At the production helm is guitar effects record-breaker, former Skunk Anansie axeman and all round London music legend, Ace.
