Biography
Blocko was a three-piece independent punk band from South London, UK. The band was audibly influenced by the mid-nineties UK melodic hardcore scene and bands such as Hooton 3 Car and Broccoli, with less overt references to the noisier end of America's second-wave emo (early Get Up Kids, Small Brown Bike), and the oft-touted progenitors of gruff sounding punk rock, Leatherface.
The band released the 'Oimo' EP and their self titled LP (often mistakenly named 'Edmonson Ave' due to a signpost on the front cover) , along with a few split singles and numerous compilation appearances before breaking up.
