Os Shivers nasceram em 2001, num brinde à amizade. Embarcam, desde então, na procura constante de umas boas gargalhadas pelo país fora e de uns bons "moshes" nas suas actuações. Lançam-se na gravação de uma demo no verão de 2004. Dão-lhe o nome de "Coirato com pêlo e Mine Preta" e declaram ao público as suas intenções e o espírito de uma banda "Funny Rock". Caracterizam-se como sendo uma banda de rock com um estilo personalizado: “Rock Popular Caramelo”(alusão ao nome pelo qual são conhecidos os pinhalnovenses: “Caramelos”) Os temas são o resultado da sua «observação do mundo, das vidas...
Datashock is a ritualistic "neo-hippie-spook-folk" collective from Saarlouis, Germany. There is no constant lineup, as the group is joined by new members every now and then. Their music is defined almost entirely by psychedelic multidimensional live-improvisations stemming from 70ies krautrock influenced by contemporary electronic music and psychotic dronescapes. As a result we find complex layers of sultry muffled vibrations met by heavy waves of electronic sound experiments and strangely disfigured images. Here and there reality-distorting bits of whispers and cut-up voices are woven into the texture of these alien patterns of sound. Every step here is like nervously stumbling through...
"Imagine a smorgasbord of Cab Calloway, circus sideshow, KISS, cabaret, Hee Haw and Robert Johnson served up at Andy Kaufman's bat-mitzvah. A joyous mixture of the absurd and sublime, the eight-piece ensemble gracefully blends a musical amalgam of Hokum Blues, Hillbilly Swing, Country and Hot Jazz." - Stephen Ceresia, Devoted Fan White Ghost Shivers won best "Novelty" band at the 2007 Austin Music Awards, and placed in six other categories, including best Jazz, Bluegrass, Experimental, None of the Above, Female Vocals(Cella Blue), and Horns(Jonathan Doyle).

Francis Coyote Shivers was born in Toronto, Canada, where as a teenager produced the first Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet single, of which the b-side became the theme to the hit TV show "The Kids in the Hall" (1988). Coyote went on to produce their next two albums before handing the dials over to producer Steve Albini (Nirvana, etc.). Coyote Shivers played guitar in the instrumental rock band Sharkskin (eventually releasing three EPs, and the "Greatest Hits" CD compilation) before moving to Los Angeles with famed record producer Daniel Lanois (U2, Bob Dylan, etc.), who later would produce Coyote's...
Mass Shivers are a psych-punk-what-have-you power trio from Chicago, Illinois. Over the last 6 years their style has varied from that of Red Krayola-esque, Reichian-meets-hardcore implied rock to rhythm heavy double drum and twin guitar deliverance to quite tight and slamming traditional power trio finesse in the vein of Groundhogs, ZZ Top, Rush, and The Minutemen. To date, they have released albums and contributed tracks to various comps on the Sickroom (US) and Pickled Egg (UK) labels, as well as a smattering of limited vinyl-only and CD-R releases on their own Licking River Records. .
