He started playing in bands at school, the first being a covers band called 'Visions of '85', consisting of Andy on Drums, Steven "Barney" Barningham on vocals, Danny Selway on Bass, Richard "Boff" Smith on Keyboards and Andy Melton on Rhythm Guitar. They survived for one performance at a school disco, doing a cover of 'New Years Day' by U2. Uniquely, the vocalist had quit the band 10 minutes before the performance, and so the singer with another band stood in at the last minute. History forgets his name. At 17 he was snapped up by Suffolk's premier heavy metal band 'Earl' and recorded a few demos with them before their premature demise.

He was soon off to the lights of London, where he drummed for Man-Ix-Ex, who later changed their name to All Loved Up. They were a heavy metal / hair metal combo who had more enthusiasm than success. Again, a couple of demos seems to have been the total output.

When this band split, he went on to join 'Big Boy Tomato'. Big Boy Tomato enjoyed a fair amount of success in North and West London, and their 'New Wave of New Wave' sound saw them supporting bands like UK Subs and Stiff Little Fingers. Stiff Little Fingers are a punk band, originally based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, formed in 1977. ...

The Tomatoes managed a couple of e.ps, including the wonderfully titled 'Acton Baby' and the four track CD 'Hormones and Hangovers', and a live video which can sometimes still be found when trawling round the nether regions of the internet.

The Tomatoes split in the early 90s, and a splinter group emerged. Sugar Snatch (as they came to be known - there were disputes over their original name, Candy Snatch) took inspiration for their songs from cartoons, namely Asterix and Animaniacs. One album, "Mad Cows and Englishmen" was released amidst much touring of the UK and Europe, often playing the supporting slot to Toy Dolls.

Seeming going nowhere, the band split, though two of the 'Snatches went on to form 'The Yo Yos', a punkabilly band made up with refugees from the Wildhearts. Although signed and promoted heavily, the band never really took off, and they too split after recording a debut album. The Wildhearts are a rock group from Newcastle Upon Tyne, England. ...

All this while, Andy had been working with P.I.G. with Raymond Watts and toured Japan with the band. Realising that he wasn't going to get the gigs he needed if he stayed in London, he moved out to America where his working partnership with Watts led to his inclusion in the lineup of KMFDM. P.I.G. consists almost solely of Raymond Watts, an early member and periodic collaborator of KMFDM. Several of his albums were originally released in Japan, where he enjoyed considerably more success than in the United States, but those albums were eventually released in the US. Casting aside the pseudonym... Raymond Watts, an early member and periodic collaborator of KMFDM and the man behind PIG, has been a visible part of the industrial music scene since the early 1980s. ...
