The Almighty (band)

The Almighty are a hard rock/heavy metal band, from Glasgow in Scotland who formed in 1988. Three of the founding members, Ricky Warwick, Stump Monroe and Floyd London were friends who met at school. Although the band members musical roots were in punk, The Almighty adopted a more heavy metal/ hard rock orientated musical direction in their early years, and their sound was compared favourably with the likes of The Cult, AC/DC and Motörhead. Later albums saw the band's musical style move towards the band members original punk roots.

They have released seven studio albums, two anthologies and one live album.

History

1988–93

The Almighty were formed in Strathaven, Scotland, on 19 January 1988. Most of the musicians came from a punk background. Lead singer Ricky Warwick had previously done some session and tour work with New Model Army, although not on any of their recordings. Ricky, drummer Stump Monroe and bass guitarist Floyd London were friends at school and had previously played together in a local band called Rough Charm. The three were joined by guitarist Andy 'Tantrum' McCafferty to complete the band line-up. Despite the band members largely punk rock roots, The Almighty followed a more heavy metal/ hard rock orientated musical direction, and recorded an eight-track demo to help promote their early gigs.
