The next big thing on the Goth scene

Formed by sometime backing singer with the Mod Fuck Explosion, Lady Sodomy, Tractatus are the latest band to be making an impact on the British Goth music scene. Described by a random passerby as "A bunch of weirdos", Tractatus are hoping to continue making waves. The line-up is completed by Dr Cunt, the well-known driving force behing the MFE, and mysterious German Count Christoph von Kelp. Although a departure from the usual political punk that we expect from the MFE, Tractatus continue in the tradition of having no musical ability whatsoever but this time with more pianos. Of this new side-project Dr Cunt has said "I've always wanted to wear a pair of big Goth boots". He also reassures fans of the MFE that this doesn't confirm the ever present rumours of an imminent split for the band but that "We're just taking time out to pursue our own projects." Lady Sodomy hopes that fans of the MFE will appreciate the new band "We know it's a bit different but we're hoping that existing fans will like the new direction; pianos, songs about death, lots of eyeliner and girls in corsets." They're also hoping to pick up some new fans from amongst the young emo crowd, "Yeah, we're down with the kids" says Lady Sodomy, "they love this pretentious shite." It seems Tractatus are definitely a band to watch out for... especially if there's any beer around.
