   About Echodine

"His vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever."

The four skids of the apocalypse, collectively known as Echodine are committed to the art of riffing like bastards and rocking the fuck out. Don't be hoodwinked by the metal posturising however; theres definately a softer, melodic side there as well. Influences? Collectively, we all like Biffy Clyro, Muse, The Cooper Temple Clause, Manson and Sigur Ros, and our rcent output is starting to sound more post-rock in the vein of Mogwai and explosions In the Sky. Mark is the newest recruit on Drums, and has been playing with us since August this year.

We are always on the lookout for gigs- if your a promoter or want to put us on somewhere get in touch- we'd play anywhere as long as we got a bag of chips and an ounce of crack. The songs you can hear on this page are taken from our debut EP "Fragments from the Wilderness", and we;'re looking to record the follow up soon. For more information visit www.echodine.co.uk. In the meantime feel the rock, yo.

Bump. A packet lands on the floor. Great! More music to Osmosise. Echodine? Aww man, is this one of those, "one man and his bleep machine" affairs? Play... ahh, gladly not.

Apologies for judging the book, Echodine are not some fat guy with a battery stuck up his ass. Echodine are all big riffs, cave man bass lines and banshee vocals. I.D.S.T.F.A.E. None of this Cubase and I crap. In fact, if Echodine ever saw a computer, they'd stick a piece of bread in it and reach for the Veloceraptor sauce... probably.

Enough yammer, let us delve.

"Drip Dry" has one of those riffs that would give any metaller a thumping three day binge of a headache through some severe brain-bruising head nutting. It's a hum-dinger all right, and the bass pounds along like an Ironmonger. It's one of those guitar lines that you are sure you've heard before, but haven't. A neat skill to have whilst in this profession. All four tracks are related in this way, like one big disgusting incestuous orgy. .

Taken from www.heathangel.co.uk

Echodine adds a wandering, dreamy accompaniment to their make up, building up the suspense and a runway for Simon Daggers’ bellowing singing style in the brisk ‘Common Dominator’.

The influence of Biffy Clyro is a common trickle through this tormenting and promising four track offering. Echodine are steadfast rockers with a close knit feel, but their sound is broad enough to welcome in a range of music lovers.

Taken from the December 2005 issue of Sandman

This is rock music at it's hardest; with caveman drumming, pounding bass and dirty guitar that together produce some exciting riffs.... Songs such as "Drip Dry" and "Penny Red" are the epitome of good old fashioned heavy metal, and I can only commend the musicianshio thats both tight and well executed....

SATURDAY 25TH MARCH/THE VINE/THE HEADROW/LEEDS/£4/7.30 P.M

Quite simply a treat for anyone with eyes, ears and a sense of smell. These fine exponents of Leeds' burgeoning ear pricking stable of talent will be joined by Brenda from Bournemouth; no, she's not the lunch-lady, she won't be slopping it to with a side hunk of bread... these Brenda boys are quite simply one of the finest live bands you will ever have the pleasure of seeing, so enjoy her as recommended, with a cockle-warming starter of Chickenhawk, a sweet and fulfilling dessert of Monster Killed By Laser, all washed down with a large glass of These Monsters.

First 10 people in get a FREE Mogwai Mr.Beast poster. Next 10 people in don't.
