Victory pill is the brainchild of former Prodigy and Pitchshifter Guitarist Jim Davies. Their debut album was critically acclaimed through out the UK rock and dance press, with many tracks picked up for video games and trailers on the way.
With their high energy blend of Davies's trademark cutting edge guitars and pounding industrial breakbeat grooves, 'Victory Pill' have developed a cult following among fans of crossover beats and rock, described by one reviewer as 'possibly the most perfect mix of full on guitars and beat ive heard since 'Music for the jilted generation'

Career Defining Moment:
Watching the decline of the massive major record labels and wallowing in thir death throes, while pointing and laughing.
Inspired by:
The awful state of music at the moment drives us to create something we actually would like to listen to had someone else written it!! As well as a drive to keep improving and writing interesting and fresh sounding tunes that defy genres and pigeon holes.
Currently Listening To:
The second album we are currently more than half way through recording, Hybrid, Underworld, Bloc Party, Kings of Leon, NIN "Year Zero' (on constant rotation)
Collaboration Wish List:
Depeche Mode, NIN, Saul Williams, Underworld
Dream Project:
To work on the next Call of Duty XBOX game in any way shape or form...be it making the tea or writing the soundtrack!
Final Word:
Jim has a guitar instrumental album coming out on April 20th through Mascot Records, titled "Electronic Guitar." It's an instrumental guitar album the likes of which you will have never heard before - dark moody beats and a vast aray of weird and wonderful guitar sounds and textures. Very melodic and tastefull with all sounds created on the guitar (except drums and bass obviously).
Pete Crossman and Jim have also just finished recording an album with UK Breakbeat Queen Odissi. The band is called Sex & Circuitry. Expect dark, brutal mixtture of guitars and electronics with rowdy, fiesty and at times downright filthy vocals from Odissi.
