Emerging from the South Yorkshire underground, this trio delivered a gritty, high-energy blend of garage rock and psychedelic punk often described as "nursery rhymes for goth kids."
They became a staple of the Yorkshire circuit, frequently appearing at festivals like Tramlines Fringe and supporting touring acts such as Malta's Fuzzhoneys.
Released in 2017, Gray Pride was a standout EP that helped cement the band’s reputation for "lo-fi, high-velocity" garage rock. The title was a playful, tongue-in-cheek nod to the often bleak, overcast aesthetic of South Yorkshire towns, matching the band's gritty, distorted sound.
Their recorded output peaked with the 2018 cassette release Believe In Yourself & Aliens, an album that had that raw, distorted sound, with a some cool unrelenting songs - kinda sound a bit like Nosebleed in parts.
Split in 2019 but members of Abominable Soul have been active in several other projects within the South Yorkshire and North of England DIY scenes.
