10 Questions – Sned

Some short and sweet answers to our ten questions this time! Answering them this week is long time stalwart of the UK underground punk scene, Sned of DIY label Flat Earth Records. Not only did Sned run the label for many years, releasing classic records by the likes of Sedition, Scatha, Submission Hold, Witchknot and many more but he also played in numerous bands himself. You might be familiar with his drumming on releases by Suffer, Generic, One By One and Health Hazard and he also did stints on guitar and bass with bands like Oi Polloi and Doom. Nowadays he co-runs the punk jigsaw makers Amorphous Pieces who specialise in beautiful recycled cardboard jigsaws featuring album cover artwork from the likes of Subhumans, Rudimentary Peni, The Mob and many more (https://amorphouspieces.bigcartel.com/products) – and while he no longer runs Flat Earth you can still download the entire catalogue here:- https://flatearthrecs.bandcamp.com/
