Inner Terrestrials
Punk Ska Band from United Kingdom
Band Members : J, Fran, Francisco Carreno
Inner Terrestrials (also referred to as iT!) are a punk band from South London, England. Originally formed by Jay Terrestrial and Fran Webber, their first gig was in February 1994. Their music is a mix of punk, dub, ska and a touch of folk, with lyrics that are more often than not aggressively political and cover subjects such as anarchism, animal rights, land ownership, the class system, war and many other subjects. Completely anti-establishment, they prefer to deal only with underground and DIY distributors (distros) and collectives, and as such became "legendary" (according to Peppermint Iguana, The Bolton News, and The South Wales Evening Post) in the underground punk and squatter scene in the UK and across Europe.
Career
Originally formed by Jay Terrestrial and Fran Webber, their first gig was at the Queen Adelaide Pub in Penge, South London on 14 February 1994. The band has gigged every year since their beginnings, by 2015 they had played thousands of gigs across the UK, Ireland, mainland Europe, Réunion Island and Japan.
Benefits
In 2009, the band played alongside the Fun Lovin' Criminals to raise funds for direct action against logging.
In February 2015, the band played a fundraiser for victims of the Gaza–Israel conflict in Uplands, Swansea, Wales.
