Real State (Berwin Leighton Paisner)

Little is known about this iteration of the band other than its name and who’s in it. Attempts to learn more have been frustrated by the band's management which allows only limited contact on the grounds that most of the time the band is either dead drunk, under sedation or in the Priory.

Rock fans will recall that the original Real State imploded after a fractious Japanese tour in 2009 when its drummer choked to death on sashimi during the second encore. This prompted thoughts of a name change. A proposal to call the re-formed band the "Millipedes of Death", inspired by the guitarist’s observation that between them the band had 16 legs and a very small brain, was vetoed on the grounds of biological inaccuracy and a collective ignorance as to how to spell milllllipede. So they’ve stuck with "Real State". A band of genuine distinction.

Not distinct in the sense of being mind numbingly loud, as their critics would claim, but that rare thing: 8 shy young musicians who in their dreams wish only to sit on stage on an oriental carpet with incense burning as they strum sensitive love songs on their guitars to an appreciative audience. Unfortunately, their audiences experience more of a nightmare than a dream - A cacophony of unparalleled aural violence.

So be afraid . . . be very afraid . . . for the mighty lord of darkness has turned the amplifier of destiny up to 11, to unleash the satanic force of rock that is . . . . REAL STATE!!!
