Volume 2 of the POM COM community compilation is up on BANDCAMP now and soon on Spotify! Thanks to MP & Beau for putting this together and all the bands that submitted! It's FREEEEEE but donations welcome!

After everything that has been said recently about the bassist John, the band has decided that they will take a step back from music for a little bit while they work with their team (quite literally their parents) on a response to the allegations, any music already made could be released as singles in the meantime while all of the investigations from the police are sorted. We will keep you updated on how everything is going. Have a special February. 

GENRE: PUNK

​"It was really fun to have Eddie Jones working with us on the song, He has a very positive energy for creativity, Plus he helped a lot with the Solo part of the song! Who knows, we can call him again for another collab together?" -Richard Turner

GENRE: POP PUNK

​Randy (POM Records): What's up Special Ed! The band has been pulling some big brain moves by releasing Lobotomy, an 11-track LP. Tell us about the album, the production & the songs! Did anyone lose a few brain cells?

Special Ed: Sup! Yeahhh the LP was honestly mad! A lot of the time it was just throwing whatever ideas we had together to see what worked and what didn't, and unlike most group projects everyone actually had input, sadly I think Dylan our drummer has lost his mind or been possessed by the drumming gods because he did not stop drumming for a few days! Swear he's got infinite stamina.

​Randy: The band has a lot of fun & good energy. How's everyone doing now that you guys are getting more known in the scene? You guys seems to be enjoying the whole process & experience.

Special Ed: Thanks mate! We're enjoying the music-making process and just getting to know everyone, especially loving a lot of the metal that's been coming out recently, just technically brilliant stuff!

​Randy: You guys just his Bronze certification on the album. What's next for the band? Any tours?

Special Ed: Ayyy that's amazing we definitely weren't expecting to start off so strong! We're not really that good at plans to be honest with you but touring is so fun from our experiences so I think a tour will definitely be on the cards.

​Randy: UK is definitely the place for punk. What inspired the band growing up?

Special Ed: Yeah the UK is such a great place for punk music, When we were growing up it was quite a mix of things, obviously you had the punk bands of the older days just causing chaos wherever they went and the Welsh pop punk scene is surprisingly large especially with bands like Neck Deep who have had huge success abroad. If you ask Gareth though he grew trying to copy Ed Sheeran and the like so he's a bit more pop-oriented than the rest of us.

​Randy: What message do you guys have for your fans?

Special Ed: Honestly just thank you to everyone for the support, even the people who don't like us because you still gave us a chance! Also a huge thank you to POM Records just for being patient while we learn the ropes, expect more treats from us very soon!

Thank you to Special Ed for the interview! Be sure to download their album Lobotomy!
