Good Throb was a feminist punk ensemble originating from London, active between 2010 and 2016. The group featured KY Ellie (Ellie Roberts) as lead vocalist, BB Thing (Bryony Beynon) handling guitar duties, Ash Tray (Ashleigh Holland) on bass guitar, and L-Hard (Louis Harding) playing drums. Their formation stemmed from relationships within the London punk community, with members exploring different roles such as switching instruments or vocal responsibilities. Prior to Good Throb, Beynon and Harding had worked together in The Sceptres, while Holland later joined the band Frau.
Throughout their career, the band issued three 7-inch EPs alongside one full-length album through independent labels including Super-Fi Records, Muscle Horse, and La Vida Es Un Mus. Music critic Jenn Pelly characterized their sound as "raw, primal, ferocious," highlighting a blend of "razorsharp cleverness and total disintegration."
Guitarist Bryony Beynon also appeared as a guest vocalist on Raise Your Voice Joyce: Contemporary Shouts From Contemporary Voices, a 2018 compilation covertly recorded by the Canadian group Fucked Up.
