Fabric (2)

Fabric was an emotional hardcore band from London, England, active throughout the 1990's. Fabric formed in early 90's and separated in 1996, featuring Antony Sylvester of The Dukes Of Nothing/33/Turbonegro on bass and Chris Turner of Orange Goblin/The Dukes Of Nothing on drums. Other members included Andrew Hartwell, James Tilley, Kevin Williams. Fabric were a rarity in the UK - a homegrown Emo band. Similar to many of the bands in North-East US (especially the DC area), Fabric helped paved the way for the emergence of UK Hardcore in the late-90s. They were signed to London-based Wiiija records, but due to the fact the band didn't fit in with other bands on the more indie Wiiija roster, Fabric appeared on their own imprint 'Wholecar', which also released records by similar-styles bands. Fabric released three singles, an album 'Body of Water' and a mini-LP 'Lightbringer' before breaking up around 1996.
