About Amy Blue

AMY BLUE is made up of regular British people. By standing in a room at the same time thrashing at strings and drums and stomping on fuzz pedals, they produced the noises you may be listening to right now. They recruit those who believe and destroy those who refuse to see past the haircuts and identikit janglesongs that their friends, lovers and MTV's feed them. This is LoudFuzzyNoisePop for those who dig awesome sounds.

AMY BLUE make beautiful, dark and electrifying music that's different from every band you've heard this year, or last. Pitchfork said they were "pretty clever actually". SPIN like them. Billy Corgan liked them enough to not take them to court. RedHeadedStepChild Records put them on their compilation. Their debut album is out now on ultra-limited edition CD, audio cassette+dvd-r "package" (video footage, digital art, bonus tracks and japes), and via iTunes.

SpiritSpiderS	Nov 7 2009 5:33 PM I use a typo here and there, so you know I'm not a bot.
SpiritSpiderS	Nov 7 2009 5:33 PM Nice job! I was really curious who you'd translate your sound in the studio and it really worked out extremely well. I love how you can be gentle and mean at the same time. Would be a good soundtrack, too! File under: Heavy rotation.
SpiritSpiderS	Nov 4 2009 8:59 PM Yey, my CD arrived! Tonight's the night!

Eilis Angel Dew	Sep 26 2009 8:09 PM Thank you so much for the birthday wishes - I think that would be Simon? It's been a while but I know we used to converse more in the early myspace days. Still on the Trail of Dead forum? Log in name? Oh, too many friends. Anyway, the birthday was good, going to see TOD in a couple of weeks in Seattle. Just checked out your songs and they are awesome! Nice melodies, great voice, interesting words (didn't get them all.) All the best for continued success! Rock on, Eilis

APPLICANTS	Feb 23 2009 8:28 PM Hello, thanks for the friend request, I could only get about 10 seconds of your songs to play right now on the myspace player, but you are friends with Screaming Tea Party and that 10 seconds were way good enough for me - sounds ace! You're playing on Wednesday then? OK, well maybe see you soon!
シゲキ	Feb 20 2009 7:52 PM thank you for the friendship!
The Knight Stalkers	Feb 3 2009 1:36 PM Finally! I tried adding you ages ago but "Amy Blue does not accept requests from bands" apparently! Good luck with the album launch! Tom (and the other Knight Stalkers, probably...) x

SpiritSpiderS	Jan 18 2009 12:09 AM Thanks! Jay really beat himself with that one. It was way too expensive, but it looks awesome as a digipak!

blue fan blue fan blue	Sep 18 2008 7:57 AM thank you my friend * " Amy Blue" ' blue' the best friendship * blue fan blue~~*
DJ Hombre	Sep 17 2008 4:26 PM errr...yep. it was about a year ago and i'd just discovered some loose change down the back of the sofa! I'm still trying to get to grips with it and make it sound slightly less drippy / brian eno - which is still lovely, if a little restricted. I've discovered through chopping breakbeats into sections you can muck about and resequence them while doing all the other usual gubbins in the lightbox. Far easier to do in the MPC sampler, but not quite as pretty. Still not sure if the tenori is the right thing for a suspected epileptic to be using tho'! Cheerio Hombre
DJ Hombre	Sep 10 2008 12:44 PM LHC = Large Hadron Collider Nice pic here; http://lh6. ggpht. com/abramsv/R93vgatLitI/AAAAAAAALyE/h0jVZj7fjeU/0610026_02-A4-at-144-dpi. jpg
DJ Hombre	Sep 10 2008 7:35 AM I heard that in the LHC control room in Cern they were playing a track by a little known (but destined for fame & fortune) UK band, Amy Blue. The End Of The World. Maybe you should use pics of the LHC on the EP? Take care chaps Hombre & the Hombrettes
