We’re from a town named Cheshunt just outside of London but sometimes get classed as being part of the ‘Essex scene’. Officially we formed in 2007 with our first show just days later. Before our official formation Glenn and Lemmi released a split E.P. on Leaving Home Records under the name Plastic Passion featuring the song ‘Not Art’, which is now recognised as an ‘art-punk classic’ as far as Artrocker magazine is concerned. In the year or so since our formation we have toured up and down the country playing over 100 shows (honestly), with the likes of Blood Red Shoes, Foals, Jack Penate, Hadouken and more recently 30 Seconds To Mars at the Hammersmith Apollo. In September 2008 we're set to release an album in Japan (but will be available anywhere) called 'Contrived Imagery'. Already it is Artrocker recommended and described as ‘One of the highlights of the year so far' and 'All killer, no filler’ which we're pretty proud of.
"...easily one of the coolest bands on the unsigned circuit with a sound only they can claim as their own."
Broccoli Music
"...One of the highlights of the year so far, All killer, no filler..."
Artrocker Magazine
"..aggressive, spooky..."
NME
"...Plastic Passion have defined an urgent sound that is immediately recognisable, this album (Contrived Imagery) reiterates what we've already suspected... Plastic Passion are a bloody great band"...
Pix Magazine
"...An absolute riot live."
Teletext
"This post-punk, power-pop trio are simply the most exciting and energetic band to break through the Hertfordshire and Essex scene..."
Control Yourself Records
"This bands poetically punk attitude is anything but plastic and their latest song goes beyond proving it."
