Morning all. After a flurry of rhesus based activity, I'm proud to announce our new logo has arrived. It's completely custom made, with a hand made font and style. The theory behind it is simple, I wanted the good bits from the 2012 olympics logo, and none of the rubbish. The good in that logo: 1) INSTANTLY recognisable. 2) Can be used with any brand/promotion easily due to the fact it can be in any colour (not many logos allow that). So with that in mind, and with a third condition to meet (3) I wanted it to look great stand alone, but be able to fade away into nothing if needed [it doesn't always have to steal the show!] Here are the results of my labour :D The above shows the way that it's recognisable and can be used in any colour/situation. This shows condition 3, ...

Hey gang! The first review for our new EP "Bored Games" has come out! I'll attach it below: Rhesus – Bored Games Featuring the kind of impassioned vocals and melodic, polished guitar work that have been known melt hearts and pack venues in the right hands, ‘Bored Games,’ the latest EP from Black Country four-piece Rhesus, certainly threatens to add yet another name to the ever expanding ‘most likely to succeed’ category in the minds of those monitoring the legion of young bands populating the UK music scene. Unlike some of those that share the tag however, if this band are among the chosen few who make their mark and break through to the big time, then, on the evidence of ‘Basement,’ ‘Hey,’ et al, they’re going to do it with refreshing emotional candour, lack of pretention, and through the efforts of a dedicated grassroots following that the band have already begun to ...

Firstly, apologies for not blogging for a while - with the Bored Games launch rapidly approaching we've been busy getting the CDs made, getting T-Shirts made, booking gigs, and generally, working hard. This was our first gig since coming out of the studio, and in a month packed full of dates, it was important we got off to a good start. The Taphouse in Kidderminster is a well known gigging venue in the area, it's got a decent size stage for what is predominantly a pub, and has it's own quite regular crowd. We got there first, set up and had our sound check. The sound engineer couldn't quite fathom our inear monitors, but in his defence, he was using a loaned PA. Our set was as follows: Punk So Alone Big Me Liar Hey The Chase Basement Intro Terror threefour Narcolespy Baby Young Love After the gig, we got a ...
