Bio
...... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. Video By Cornelia Van Rijswijk (please see blog for more details) .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. Video by Simon Davies .. .. Don’t Tread On Spiders are an alternative rock band formed in Cardiff, South Wales. Their debut EP ..Monomyth.., released in 2008, has received excellent critical reviews from ..Artrocker Magazine.. and Wales based E-zine ..God Is In The TV... The band has also received a ..“Number 1 Breaking Band”.. review in ..NME.. and appeared in local Cardiff independent compilation ..“This Town Ain’t Big Enough For The 22 Of Us”... .. .. D.T.O.S. have a lo-fidelity ethos to their recordings, and fortuitously in the current climate have embraced the ..Do-It-Yourself.. method of promoting and releasing their own material. They are currently known for their re-use of old B-Movie monster posters to promote their gigs. .. .. Although their first release comprises of eclectic sounding songs with acoustic guitar and a 80+ year old piano (it's haunted), for live shows the Spiders are famous for their powerful electric guitar based songs, dynamic performance and raw/ riff -driven sound. Demos for songs ..“My Week In Shinjuku”.. and ..“Get Up And Go”.. have received airplay from a D.I.Y. special on ..Radio 1.., along with other shows on ..X-Fm.. and ..TSM Radio... Sonny also appeared on the ..BBC Wales.. .."Art Mundi".. documentary performing ..“Wasted You”.. in the opening credits. .."Together Again".. has appeared on a local indie film ..BIG FONT. LARGE SPACING... .. .. "Radio 6 Featured Unsigned Band" ..Steve Lamacq.. .. .. “Number 1 Breaking Band” ..NME.. .. .. “Brilliant Stuff. Self-hating, nihilistic and defeatist lo-fi rock” ..Artrocker Magazine.. .. .. “Ear viagra without the embarrassment” ..Adam Walton, BBC Radio Wales.. .. .. “Very very good indeed” ..Bethan Elfyn, BBC Radio 1.. .. .. “A darn fine debut release from this highly accomplished band, I look forward to hearing more from them” ..God Is In The TV.. .. .. "‘Ones to watch!’"..Altsounds.. .. .. Enquiries: donttreadonspiders@hotmail.co.uk .. ..
