My Friend Eject is a unit of individuals. We don't all look the same and we don't all like the same things. We didn't all go to school together, we haven't known each other for years and we're not childhood mates.
What connects us is a passion for music. Another is our belief that there's a lot of amazing music out there, and a lot of absolute $hite rammed down your throats by corporate business. Since forming last year, all we've tried to do is make music we love, music which conveys emotion AND enough energy to get your head banging.
Because we don't only like one kind of music, we don't only play one kind of music. There's always a tendency to pigeonhole, but we've just tried to mix and match the best bits of the bands we love. We want to fuse the Prodigy's beats with Muse's riffs. We want to make huge epic rock songs with the jarring rhythms of The Klaxons and the energy of Enter Shikari. Not a wall of sound but an avalanche of noise. That's the mission.
It seems to us that everyone wants to be a rule-breaker, trend-setter or ‘alternative’. F*ck all that. It should be just about the music. Always.
For that reason we'd like to thank all those people who have already shown us support. The believers. Those people who have added us as friends, left us comments and told others they like what they've heard. Those people who’ve come to gigs with an open mind and listened. Especially those people who come and get down the front to let themselves go.
So, if you like the music, try and come along to a show and say ‘hi’. If you can't make it drop us a line on here or by email. But if it's only to spam us, try and flog us stuff, or add us without even listening to our tracks (if you're another band) then don't f*cking bother. See you down the front...

"Boasting slickly produced songs and oozing potential, [My Friend Eject] are undoubtedly on the right path with their melodic guitars, strong vocals, anthemic tunes and a distinctly British sound … Worth keeping an eye on 'em."
BBC Radio One Online
"The edgy and melodic rock of this London-based four-piece is attracting the attention of labels, critics and fans alike. Catch them now before they become huge."
