RIP - Bern - lead singer of Elfyn Presli ac y Massey Fergusons, the Welsh farmer psychopunk band feat on the Words of Warning EP The First Cuts Are The Deepest along with Anhrefn. Any band with a song Seig Heil Jackboots Maggie Thatcher would seem to have a bright future, unfortunately, this band became heroin addicts, heavy drinkers and/or potheads, but this turned out to be a rumour started by Anhrefn’s Sion Sebon!. Reknowned for being an excellent live band, reviews in The Observer were pretty good to them. John Peel was a fan and would like to have played “Jackboots Magi Thatcher” but it was banned by the beeb, but was played by Neil Crud on Radio Wales (2004). They stopped when the driving force (Bern) behind the band just had enough, and called it a day after a monumental session in Aberystwyth (c1987). Of the band members (we think) Gethin lives in Russia, Chris Shutes comes back up to North Wales occasionally, and Bern stayed in the area, supping a beer or seven and pontificated on the meaning of beer, music, and the state of the economy. He sadly died 25.04.2010
