The Reynold Project (TRP) is a post-hardcore band made up of 5 lads, formed from a random idea to jam together which has taken them further than they ever thought. Their music is similar to that of Enter Shikari and Refused, Enter Shikari being their idols, taking inspiration from their music and their performances on stage. Each member brings a different personality to the band, filling it with utter madness. Liam Cooke, vocals, presents himself in chinos, shorts or skinny jeans and band tees, showing his character to be that of a drunken child and fully enjoys giving the audience a performance to remember. Brad Essex, vocals, usually seen in band tees or high-neckline shirts and skinny jeans, his character would be viewed as fairly random and odd, reflecting in his style of singing and performance. Jack Olund, guitar, is often seen in high-necked shirts and skinny jeans, his personality being quite quirky and strange, creating a great performance when on stage. Brogan Finnigan, bass, never seen out of a vest shirt (or shirts cut to a vest) and skinny or normal jeans, his character probably being the most normal out of the group, but still a hint of stupidity in there. Jack Mugglestone, drums, usually seen in shirts or thin jumpers and skinny jeans, his personality is close to that of a 6 year old child, screaming and pulling faces and just overall a bit weird. The attitude and personalities that fill this band is what creates the origional style of post-hardcore music they put across, aiming their music at underground gig goers aged from 16-25 years. They believe that music is for unifying people, they don't write about love and generic problems, more about what annoys them such as pop music being corrupt and false yet dominant in the music industry, the media being bollocks with all the gossip getting on the front page of papers as if its the most important thing and against discrimination.
Their music would be heard on hardcore music channels such as Kerrang Radio and would be seen performing in more urban areas such as city centres. Altogether the band comes across as a lively and very down to earth bunch of lads, just wanting to make music that will entertain and create madness amongst the audience, and just overall have a laugh with each other and their fans.
