History


Initially a solo project for vocalist/guitarist Tegan Christmas, The Ethical Debating Society formed as a band in 2009 with Lauren Darling (guitar) and Chris Morris (drums).[6] They received an early name-check in The Guardian from Everett True.[7] Recordings made with producer Ant Chapman were initially unreleased, although two tracks were included on a later EP.[8] By 2010 Darling and Morris had left and Tegan continued with a varying line up[9][10] until the group settled as Tegan with Eli Tupa[11] and Kris Martin[12] in 2013.[13]

The band played a number of early gigs around the UK queercore scene, with Ste McCabe, The Younger Lovers and others;[14][15] following an appearance on Brighton queercore label Tuff Enuff Records’s 2012 compilation Why Diet When You Could Riot?[16] gigs with Shrag and Tunabunny led to a split single with London’s Skinny Girl Diet on US label Happy Happy Birthday To Me Records in 2013.[17][18][19] A cassette/download EP on Tuff Enuff - "Hens Teeth" - followed in 2014.[20]

In 2015, The Ethical Debating Society's debut album New Sense was released on Odd Box Records following audio and video previews,[21][22] and received positive reviews from SoundsXP,[23] Collapse Board,[24] Louder Than War[25] and others,[26][27][28][29][30] with radio support including BBC Radio 6,[31] Dandelion and Artrocker Radio. The album was produced by Mark Jasper at Sound Savers studio. Album track "Razor Party" (written by former drummer Rob) was voted #32 in the 2015 John Peel memorial 'Festive 50' compiled by Dandelion Radio.[32]

The band supported Jack Off Jill at their final show, at Heaven in London,[33] and played with Shonen Knife on the London date of that band's 2016 tour.[34] They played at Indietracks 2015, and have also played with The Wolfhounds, The Nightingales, The Homosexuals, Hagar the Womb, Prolapse, and Bis.

In 2013, T.E.D.S. were named as a 'band to watch' by Londonist.[35] In 2017, they were included in Clash magazine's list of "favourite new groups"[36] alongside Shopping and others.
