Nottinghamshire, England (2006 – 2008)
I Was a Cub Scout was originally a one-man band, consisting solely of Todd Marriott. Lacking a drummer, Marriott used a drum machine to create the sound. William Bowerman joined the band in mid 2006, and has played drums until their split.
The band spent about six months playing house parties and night clubs in England, their exposure gaining them some popularity. They also maximized their exposure by touring extensively, playing in the 2007 Carling and Download Festivals, as well as embarking on a tour with DARTZ!.
On 6th June 2008, lead singer Todd Marriott announced their split via Myspace bulletin. He blamed “countless problems” and said it was “a very sad day”.

One of those great British bands who broke up way too quickly,like Test Icicles,Help She Can't Swim,Cutting Pink With Knives and countless others. Even if IWACS' earlier stuff (like the old version of Pink Squares,Teenage Skin and This Is Not A Crate) was better than the actual album.
