His Name Is Codeine is a dark/psychedelic/noisepop band from Elgin in the north east of Scotland. Formed in 2010, they debuted their current lineup of Lyn Ralph (Vocals/Bass/Drum looper), Marc Roy (Guitars/Vocals) and Mark Simpson (Guitars/Vocals) in December of that year. Since then they have been gaining a reputation for their intense live shows across Scotland. Drawing comparisons with the likes of Velvet Underground, Jesus And Mary Chain, The Kills and The Raveonettes - His Name Is Codeine blend pounding drums and bass with effect laden guitars, combined with a three vocal harmony, to create a formidable wall of sound.
