Engerica were a British, Essex based punk band. The group incorporated several styles into their repertoire, varying from punk and metal, to instances of grunge and goth-inspired lyrics. Their debut and only album There Are No Happy Endings, which was released on 13 March 2006, included a mix of styles.

In December 2000 the band played their first show, and in January 2005 Engerica signed to Sanctuary Records and recorded their debut album.

The band announced on Wednesday 23 August 2006 that they would be going their separate ways as of November 2006.

Their final gig was held on 26 October at Chinnerys in Southend-on-Sea.

Bassist Mike Webster began his own solo project in late 2005, generally performing vocals and an acoustic guitar, although he occasionally records with a backing group, whose members include his twin brother Jim. Some of the music written in this solo project has also been included in the Engerica catalogue of songs.

Later, the solo project became a full band named Baddies who achieved moderate success before disbanding in 2012. Mike Webster is now bassist for band Asylums, whose début album is due out on Cool Thing Records in 2016.
