initial (no caps) are a 3 piece alt-pop-rock band from Auckland, New Zealand made up of Simon (guitar/vox), Craig (bass/vox) and Oskar (drums/vox).
We have around 30 original songs ranging from light-hearted acoustic love songs to all out neck-jarring, child-upsetting rock epics, and we have recently recorded a three track demo CD at the Rock Factory Auckland.
We draw from our collective influences including Weezer, Alice in Chains, The Beatles, Tool, Foo Fighters, the earth's gravitational pull, our mums and dads, and incorporate the vocal abilities of all three band members in our songs.
We are passionate about our music, and love performing for an audience.
