Under The Influence ( Music before you ask ! )

A lot of our influences we’re current when The Thought Criminals started and are still releasing. So below we list the Artists and their Songs which have influenced The Thought Criminals Sound and minds in Room 101.  Some legendary, some less known some just as Insane as us. Some can be heard as an influence on our Recordings some not so obvious. As far as we know we’ve not cloned or ripped anyone’s song of to date. Apart from Nickelodeon’s Fred Figglehorn (Some Inbred Kid TV Show Stars Producers) ripping a song of ours word for word, and naming the track the same as ours. You really can’t make up the Music Industry…
