Rhythm Guitar, Bass Guitar.ABOUT
We are currently looking for a bass player and potentially a keyboard player from around the Barnsley/Sheffield area to join us, with the hope of rehearsing towards gigs and recording new original songs up in our studio. Where easy going and like a laugh but we believe in what where doing and know we can do great things with the right people, so give listen to some of the tunes as they range from acoustic to indie to alternative and if you like what you hear give us a shout.

Status Unknown is a charismatic band with a fondness for punk rock and alternative music. Hailing from Barnsley, England, the group set out to create music by combining powerful melodies with infectious energy.
The band’s recent release is a brand new EP titled “Population 1” - a great taste of Status Unknown’s sonic vision and perspective. The Ep marks a really positive step forward for this band, whose sound is becoming increasingly more personal and defined.
The EP’s tone makes me think of bands such as R.E.M, Dinosaur Jr., Superchunk or early Foo Fighters: there is a great balance between catchy songwriting and gritty edges, adding palatability to the music while retaining a personable and authentic tone.
“Traffic Lights” is probably one of the band’s catchiest songs, with jangly guitar chops and catchy grooves pulsating through the beat.
On songs such as “Ain’t Life Sweet”, the band also hints at some 60s influences, tipping the hat to bands such as The Kinks or The Beatles with some awesome vocal harmonies.

Status Unknown - Traffic Lights (Lyrics) Walking these streets at night Traffic lights changing my mind, yeah And I get lost in the crowd Consumed by the sound And it’s killing me now, yeah I’m working it out I’m changing my mind The street lights they fade It’s getting away It’s always just ahead of me Instead of straight in front of me Oh Baby won’t you give me just a little more time To work it out baah da dat daaaaa Guess will be lonely now Working it out Guess I’m too proud, now Guess we could give it away Put our love up for sale Breathe in and exhale, out I’m working it out I’m changing my mind The street lights they fade It’s getting away It’s always just ahead of me Instead of straight in front of me It’s getting away The street lights they fade It’s always just ahead of me Instead of straight in front of me Oh Baby won’t you give me just a little more time To work it out Baah da dat daaaaa The lights they went down On lovers that fell to sleep In these broken towns It’s all coming back to me I’m lost in a crowd So I’m screaming out for you now I’m working it out I’m changing my mind The street lights they fade It’s getting away It’s always just ahead of me Instead of straight in front of me Oh Baby won’t you give me just a little more time To work it out

Status Unknown – Young & Reckless (Lyrics) She was young & reckless, and I was the same She told me how she wanted, to set the night a flame Told her I could help her, if I knew her name, she said I am young & reckless My heart is turning Black, Oh do you feel the same I don’t feel anything, no I don’t feel no shame We can leave tonight, upon the midnight train She said I am young & reckless Young and reckless I am……… We left it all behind we left it all in flames She said she'll never come back this way again When they write the headlines, I wonder what they'll say They'll say we were young and reckless They told me I was nothing, so that’s what I became Somewhere deep inside her, she buried all her pain We can go anywhere, where no one knows are name Coz we are young & reckless Young & reckless I am Young & reckless I am We left it all behind, we left it all in flames She said she’ll never come back this way again When the write the headlines I wonder what they’ll say They’ll say we were young & reckless We had a Red car we had to paint it black And if the world don’t know ya they’ll never find you’re tracks I see the search light shining on your back When we were young and reckless Young & reckless I am Young & reckless I am Young & reckless I am………
