THE FOAMERS First Got Together Back In 1996 And Were Formed In A Pub In Epsom Surrey By Chris Carlos And Kerem Soon To Be Joined By Tom. After A Few Months Of Writing And Practising In True Punk Rock Fashion They Recorded A Bunch Of Tracks In A Local Studio Which Had Been Converted From A Public Toilet. Tent City Records From New York Got Hold Of The Demo And Asked THE FOAMERS To Do A Record For Them So In June 1999 The Band Jetted Off To The USA To Record Their Debut Full Length "6 Pints None The Wiser". With The Album Released In June 2000 Described As A Mix Of 4/4 Punk Ska And Oi With Influences Of Snuff And Choking Victim THE FOAMERS Found Lots Of New Fans. Amongst Many Other Gigs In The Summer Of 2001 THE FOAMERS Embarked On A Tour With Leftover Crack And Became Friends With The Band Who Are Also A Massive Influence. After A Few Months THE FOAMERS Headed Back To The Studio To Record 3 Tracks For Release On Their Own Label Plopstars Recordings. The Title Track Football Was An Anti-Hooligan Song And 2 Tracks From "6 Pints…" Were Also Included As Recorded Live Whilst On Tour With Capdown. After A Show One Night At The Underworld Camden Supporting Hellcat Punks F-Minus THE FOAMERS Became Part Of The Household Name Family And Plans For The Label To Release Their Second Album Were Hatched.
