The Membranes are an English post-punk and noise rock band formed in Blackpool, Lancashire in 1977. The initial line-up was John Robb (bass), Mark Tilton (guitar), Martyn Critchley (vocals) and Martin Kelly (drums). Critchley soon left, with Robb and Tilton taking on vocals, and Kelly moving to keyboards, with "Coofy Sid" (Coulthart) taking over on drums.
