Taint have continued to forge their unique and enigmatic brand of heavy rock, since their 1994 inception in South Wales. Their debut full-length ‘The Ruin Of Nova Roma’ (2005) and follow up ‘Secrets And Lies’ (2007) on Lee Dorian’s Rise Above records established them as fully paid up contenders in the broader spectrum of heavy weight bands.

Taint have continued to forge their unique and enigmatic brand of heavy rock, since their 1994 inception in South Wales. Their debut full-length ‘The Ruin Of Nova Roma’ (2005) and follow up ‘Secrets And Lies’ (2007) on Lee Dorian’s Rise Above records established them as fully paid up contenders in the broader spectrum of heavy weight bands. Cutting their teeth in the early ‘90s d.i.y scene, Taint have retained their hardcore pugnacity while exploring more progressive avenues, thanks to their childhood influences of all things classic rock. A kid brought up on Sabbath and Led Zepplin, followed by an ongoing love affair with bands like Sepultura, Helmet, Clutch and Quicksand can't go too wrong right?
The South Wales power-trio have infiltrated every other corner of the UK/EU, with headlining tours reaching as far as Scandinavia, Portugal, Macedonia, Greece and everywhere in between. Continuing to hone their craft has paid off, seeing them honour prestigious invitations to play the Hellfest, SWR, Roadburn and Damnation Festivals. Outings with Maryland's forefathers of groove Clutch, and a personally invited support to Oakland legends of heavy Neurosis has put them in ideal company, and furthered their vision to those lucky and chosen few.
