Sack is a five-piece Irish band, based in Dublin. To date the band has released three albums: You Are What You Eat, Butterfly Effect and Adventura Majestica. The band formed after the demise of Lord John White.
Their first single "What Did The Christians Ever Do For Us?" was single of the week in both the NME and Melody Maker. They have supported Morrissey on two tours taking in mainland Europe, the UK and Ireland and the United States and supported the likes of The Fall, Boo Radleys among others. They have gigged sporadically in recent years and are planning to record new material.[1]
The band describe their sound as "Frank Sinatra fronting the Pixies".
The band appeared on the Morrissey-endorsed NME CD Songs to Save Your Life, while "Laughter Lines" appeared on the soundtrack to the movie Carrie 2: The Rage.
