this monday's headline act have just sent me some reviews of their new single...
SNAFU, 14 july -
MySpace.com - The Elvis Suicide - Glasgow, UK - Punk / Rock / Country - www.myspace.com/theelvissuicide
"Franz Ferdinand on 10 Red Bulls. It’s arch art rock with a phlegm-filled punk attitude, a blitzkrieg wall of sonic rage. This band sound like a gang and you’ll want to join."
Daily Record
"My only criticism here is that I have to keep getting up to play it again" 4/5
Music News.com
"like a mix between the fall and the birthday party"
Jim Gellatly xfm
"a Pixies-esque jaw-dropper of a single, crammed to the top with energy, muscle and passion. Bridging the gap between unlistenable rock and the radio friendly stuff, there’s something essentially raw and exciting to this band that’ll ensure they don’t go unnoticed".
Gigwise.com
"Electrifying band, slightly shambolic but in a bleeding-guitars sort of way, with a death like stomp of Horrors-sized riffs smashing against the zombie-like prowess of 80sMBLD, they‘re definitely onto something…"
Jeremy Chick, Subba-Culture
"this is one talented band, who are trying to do something different from every other band around. The Elvis Suicide are definitely going to make an impact on the British music scene"
Tasty Fanzine.org.uk
"With such short fused songs you can really feel and even taste the raw, almost blistering pace.. it signposts some potential. Just goes to show what a little bit of effort can achieve"
MANCHESTERMUSIC
"They have a bad attitude, and I like it"
Vic Galloway, Radio1/Radio Scotland
"This is short but this is good! While most bands in the UK just copy each other and end up suffocating in a boring indie scene full of clones, The ELVIS SUICIDE definitely have their own thing"
Veglam (France)
"Exciting, striking stuff. Killer guitar explosions."
