Burn
Burn's real name is Dan Wood. He was nicknamed by his arch enemy and now deceased member of HIG Alex Smith because he was obsessed with fire and because after Alex played he was 'burned' by a superior level of talent. Burn and Alex have been rivals for years, trying to best each other at guitar for years. He stated that he may have often called Alex terrible things but he was a talent musician and he wants to continue his memory. Dan is a metal fan and loves bands like All That Remains, Trivium, Machine Head and Lamb of God.
Andrew Jones
A normal bassist compared to many. Andrew is a lover of literature and fine wines. Nobody could quite understand how this seemingly pompous person was so musically talented and so raw in preformance, copying idol Sid Vicious in cutting himself on stage. Andrew has been quoted as saying that the devil possesses him when playing. He was always close friends with Hansford and knew that he wanted to carry on the HIG name after the crash. Andrews influences are AC/DC, Metallica, Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin.
George Hardy
A man who has never belonged, outed by his parents aged 15. George busked on the streets with his friends acoustic guitar, earning himself enough money to afford to go to school every day. George has always found life against him, but when he heard the news of HIG's deaths, he was the first to contact the manager and say "I'll make them proud." George has grunge influnces of Nirvana, Alice in Chains and Soundgarden.
Harry Treanor
A drummer who has always been the centre of attention, with a love for controversy and music, harry has often combined the two. Whilst playing at a pub with George Hardy, he preformed the gig naked with the words 'Clothes are for C**KS' written on his body in marker pen. He also once forged an intimately sexual image of PM David Cameron making love with a goat and stuck it on a billboard outside his house. His punk influences include The Clash, Sex Pistols, G.B.H and Dead Kennedys.
David Doust
Band manager and father of deceased Alex Doust. He has always been a huge music fan, loving everything from punk to techno. He was asked by the original members to manage the band because he used to manage his own band whilst playing for them in the 60s. Since the deaths, he has been more keen than ever to make Hanging The Innocent a global name. "It wasn't just my son that died in that plane crash, it was all 4 of them."
Adam Watkins
PR manager and live long school friend of the old breed member Bogdan Smith. He was never talented enough to play with the band but he always knew how to promote them in the best ways, having flyers made and websites created for them. He has thoroughly enjoyed meeting the new breed of HIG stating that they will definitely do the old breed proud. "Its hard you know, hearing that 4 of your best friends died trying to do something good for what they loved."
The new breed emerges!
