... well, okay, maybe it was more like a million years ago when The Neanderthals started banging on rocks and plugging guitars into amplifiers and singing about werewolves and assorted ways of doing the twist.

Fronted by singer Johnny Rabb ("the best hair in rock 'n' roll," says one fan) and guitar master Eddie Angel (a homo habilis around a guitar if ever there was one), The Neanderthals deliver just what you'd expect from a band by that name.

Use the menu to get the lowdown on these primitive rockers. It's more fun than rubbing two sticks together!
