LITTLE VILLAINS were formed in 2006 by none other than the legendary MOTÖRHEAD drummer Phil “Philthy Animal” Taylor, James Childs of AVON & UK rock group AIRBUS and the Welsh bass player Owen Street of desert rockers WAXY & sludge group VAILS. The band plays hard and heavy rock and roll, that’s it.

Philthy is no longer with them, but his music shines on in true Motörspirit with his exceptional performances on the LITTLE VILLAINS Philthy Lies and Taylor Made albums, proving his explosive drumming technique was more than intact many years after his departure from MOTÖRHEAD.

Despite personal circumstance preventing the band from ever breaking out, it was decided that the music deserved to be heard. The band signed to HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS to release Philthy Lies and later to CLEOPATRA RECORDS to release Taylor Made. Alan Davey of HAWKWIND joined the band to play bass on Taylor Made.

Chris Fielden of AIRBUS now plays drums with the band and Owen Childs has joined to play lead guitar. The band continue to record new material and tour with this line-up.
