(PR) Corporate Punishment is proud to announce the addition of one of the UKs most unique and talented new bands to our roster in the form of Victory Pill, featuring ex-Pitchshifter/ Prodigy guitarist Jim Davies, and ex-Prodigy drummer Kieron Pepper.VICTORY PILL will release their self-titled debut in the US and CANADA on 10/23 via CORPORATE PUNISHMENT/ KOCH, and in the UK on 10/1 via OTHERSIDE/ UNIVERSAL. Victory Pill is the brainchild of JIM DAVIES, long considered one of the UK's most revered and respected guitarists, whose much documented first break came in the form of The Prodigy, where he shaped his style playing on several tracks on their breakthrough Fat Of The Land album, including Prodigy staples "Firestarter" and "Breathe", as well as supplying guitars on the bands next 2 records. Jim toured worldwide with the band including a headline slot at Reading 2001 "I started playing guitar, solely rock/metal. My turning point was when 'dance' bands like The Prodigy started using guitars. I loved all the squelchy synth sounds and textures which I started to replicate on the guitar. I also started to get more into effects and sounds which I think is when I developed a bit of a unique style for myself."
