A London band that started with raw energy before exploring different territory.
For the early sound, 'Worlds Collide' still hits. 'March Of The Worms' gives you a taste of their later material.
Their debut album 'Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not' arrived in 2006 with songs like 'Worlds Collide' that defined their early approach. Later records like 'Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino' showed them moving into different territory, while tracks like 'Symphony Of Death' and 'March Of The Worms' fill out a catalog that's more varied than the name might suggest.
Hackneyed formed in London in the early 2000s, with Alex Turner on vocals and guitar, Jamie Cook on bass, Matt Helders on drums, and Nick O'Malley on keyboards. They spent their first years playing shows and working on material before their 2006 debut. Turner later released solo work, and Cook has done some film projects.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
