Sounds Like"Tunes within tunes within tunes as they twist and turn with dual guitar riffing of the sub-metal, post Sonic Youth variety. Time signatures are both foot-tapable and unfamiliar as the band challenge the listener at every corner - it's no 'easy listen' but then again, they rock like At The Drive In!" Artrocker

"Heels Catch Fire produce angular off-kilter songs that walk the tricky tightrope between post hardcore noise and danceable indie melodies. Where so many others have wobbled and fallen, it is the syncopated, driving rhythms and spiky catchy guitar parts that keep your attention hooked and your feet tapping" Source Magazine

"A carefully-weighted mixture of pop awareness – straight-up choruses sung pitch perfectly by Elliot – hidden among the incongruous surroundings of spiky guitar-driven, off-kilter songs." God Is In The TV

Yo
Was wondering if you knew anyone that plays synth/drums in the London/SE area? I have a backlog of London/Brighton/Midlands gigs and I'd much rather do them with a permanent live backing band.
Any word would be appreciated.
