There are multiple artists with this name: a US Noisecore band and a UK Noise Pop band
1) Cable is an American noisecore band formed in 1994 in Rockville, CT. Though they have changed their style over the years, Cable was originally part of the first wave of bands playing in the so-called noisecore style (as it later became known), combining a hardcore/emo aesthetic with a rhythmically complex, often discordant metal-influenced musical approach. Lineup changes and delays between recordings may have hindered their notoriety over the years, but Cable is respected and acknowledged as influential within their scene, even though other bands within it have become better known.
The Rockville, CT, quartet formed in 1994, at which time it consisted of Randy Larsen, Vic Szalaj, Matt Becker, and Jeff Caxide (who later went on to join Isis). By the time of their debut album, 1997’s “Variable Speed Drive” (doghouse records), Bernie Romanowski had replaced Caxide, briefly solidifying the lineup of Szalaj on drums, Larsen on bass and vocals, and Romanowski and Becker on guitars.
After a couple of EPs, the band’s second full-length (and first for the trend-setting label hydra head records), “Gutter Queen”, was released in 1999. Cable was down to just a three-piece for Gutter Queen, with Becker having left by this point.

I'd probably object less to the UK Cable if they didn't make a point of looking so wacky in those pictures.

Well, when people listen to metal and say things like "fuck UK poofters", totally unprovoked, you can pretty much safely assume they're fucking gristleheads whose opinions can be totally disregarded.

Added two pics of Cable (the REAL one), one from 2004 and the other one's of the new line-up. (US) Cable rocks sweaty balls. Plus, screw the UK poofters, they're dead anyhow.
