TEN POINT RULE BANDCAMP:

=========================
Ten Point Rule were formed in 1998.
The band played about 70 shows and 60 of them were upstairs in An Phoenix. Ten Point Rule played a handful of gigs in Nancy Spains, a now derelict bar and one of Corks great forgotten venues. One night the floor boards on the Nancy Spains dance floor broke due to the frenzy of The Point Rule mosh pit, such was the sign of a good gig back in those days.
In the interim of doing their exams and waiting for their results, the band went back into BPM studios in July '99 and recorded two tracks. However, due to lack of funds and other personal issues, the tracks were never released. Kevin was accepted into Trinity Medical School and the band attempted to keep going. It was apparent that the spirit in the band took a hit when Kevin left for Dublin. Ten Point Rule called it a day in late 1999 having enjoyed a year and a half of popularity on the small yet vibrant Cork underground scene.
21 years later... After digging through his old computer, singer Vince McCarthy has found the two unreleased tracks and donated them to the Irish Metal Archive. It sounds like TPR were getting better, bigger, harder and faster!
