Sounds Like

"How can you not adore a group called Brontosaurus Chorus? T'Chorus have a host of instantly lovable songs - traces of B&S, Hidden Cameras, the runaway day-glo pop of Tullycraft, and the sense that here's a band that knows how to leave you smiling." Ian Watson, How Does It Feel To Be Loved?

"London's Brontosaurus Chorus are purveyors of Technicolor dream pop. They come off not unlike a less mental Los Campesinos jumping around with Arcade Fire's bubblegum pop playing cousins in a parallel universe..." God Is In The TV Zine

"Brontosaurus Chorus endear them[selves] to you with their versatility - adding violin, accordion and trumpet to the otherwise standard set up -and their nice sense of melody. Their slightly dishevelled ‘chameleon indiepop’ is strangely charming." SoundsXP.

"Littered with summery nuances and pretty choruses Brontosaurus Chorus evidently take inspiration from bands like Belle and Sebastian, Elastica and (although musically they aren’t as macabre or deep) Joy Division. These are the type of people you’d invite to a party, get drunk and force to play an assortment of instruments just to make you smile..." Kalico Queens Blogspot

“Seven songs of supreme melodies... A great start for an impressive band." Artrocker

Brontosaurus Chorus have been kicking around since late 2006, gaining a reputation for joyous, life-affirming live shows which leave the audience grinning like fools. October 2007 saw the release of the cutesy Myth Of Love as a pink split 7” (with Worcester's And What Will Be Left Of Them?), but with their debut album, You've Created A Monster, we've seen the band shrug off the Twee tag in place of something more dynamic and layered. The string section and lilting trumpet sat alongside guitars and drums that weren't afraid to fizz and bang. The vintage pop voice of Jodie Lowther further enhanced the juxtaposition;a soaring vocal which plumbed far darker subjects than its indiepop contemporaries.

NME gave the album 8/10

Artrocker said “Supreme melodies... more of this please”.

The band have played festivals such as Offset, Indietracks and Ireland’s Electric Picnic, gigged in Germany and the Netherlands and shared the stage with Los Campesinos, Micachu, David Devant & His Spirit Wife, Ruby Suns, Laurel Collective & Polysics.

Hello. Please do delete this comment if you so wish.

We're just making sure that everyone knows that our debut album 'Horses For Courses' is available to buy from our little record label's online shop:

http://www.donttellclare.co.uk/shop.htm

Its been selling faster than we expected, and we currently only have around a quarter of our stock left - so we thought we'd better you all know that if you want a copy then now would be a good time to pick one up! If you buy it from the link above then you're buying it direct from us, the label aren't taking a cut - so its a bit like Fair Trade for struggling musicians.

International mail-order is available, just follow the instructions.

Thank you very much, and sorry for making a mess of your profile. If its any kind of consolation, we don't have a MySpace bot, so I'm leaving these comments the old fashioned way. Three -and-a-half thousand of them. My life is so exciting.

Lots of love
Das Wanderlust

"Gamages Model Train Club impart an energy and eloquent lyricism that is part devil-souled bluesman and part 19th century gentleman's club…"


- www.junkmedia.com, New York


"Evoking the rhythmical gnarliness of The Sensational Alex Harvey Band, Gamages' 'The Loss of Gamages Model Train Club' sounds like a cage battle between Belle and Sebastian and Arcade Fire held in Nick Cave's living room"


- Artrocker Magazine, London


"the Gamages Model Train Club album appearing at platform one could well be one of the albums of the year"
