In late Novemer 03 three guys arranged a jam in a damp wet cellar in Luton. To everyone's surprise they began producing music that not only sounded good, but also a little different to everything else around. With the introdution of a bass player, and songs coming together faster than they ever expected, it began to fall into place. As the band continued writing the sort of music they wanted to hear, it began to evolve beyond self indulgence and into something a little more special. They realised that they needed a greater more powerful sound, introducing vocalist Jon Morris (Ex Silent Demise) who after 30mins of roaring and serenading, impressed them so much they wanted him in. The unfortunate departure of their bassist dented their determination, but Ian, Jerome, Jon And Nick pushed on with new ideas and the search for a replacement. Along came Zi who added a further dimension to the band, amazingly playing a gig with us after only 2 weeks in the band! Due to work commitments though, Zi felt he couldn't continue, so friend of the band Al Edwards was bought in. Hopefully this time they've found a bassist who will stay. With songs that veer from walls of noise to intricate technical guitarwork all the way through to haunting melodies and soft acoustic passages the band began to take its current shape. Combined with a devastating and epic live show, Alpha High has truly lived up to the hopes of all involved. With drive and ambition, the sky's the limit....

Lyrics
Aching neglect in my life filters out a world of light and shade a dullness lies behind our eyes dark buildings seem to tower above our heads the masonry was built in every hour that we sat idle content to wait till blood and sweat can no longer define our fate (she rolls her eyes) we're blind for another day no more but through our eyes sometimes the sky screams in our heads and we can't help but look at northern lights and won't feel the same again as we burn it's up to us if we let the fire die or fan the flames when we're left drowning in an ocean of mediocrity we'll take the time to shout and laugh and wave our hands and sink beneath the waves (she rolls her eyes) tomorrows another day no more (and now this is the last chance on your own) there is no further north we can go sun has been left behind this time we're on our own we're out in the cold suffocating on the chill in our throats out in the cold and freezing our cares away we should stand
