Abdoujaparov

Abdoujaparov are a punk band formed on October 19 1998 by ex-Carter USM guitarist Les Carter (aka Fruitbat). Abdoujaparov's musical foundations are the joyous and shambolic influences of 1977 punk rock. The music is raucous, fast and sometimes a bit country. The lyrics are rude, tender, funny and sometimes just plain bad.

So far four EPs, a single and an album have been released on Spinach Records. A compilation CD featuring tracks from the first 3 EPc was released by Pop Gun in Australia. The band has toured the UK, Germany, Australia and America.

The band are named after a professional cyclist Djamolidine Abdoujaparov, from Uzbekistan.
