"...these guys are a great representation of a real Los Angeles band." - LACityZine.com
"...multi-cultural shifts of feel and flavor create an evocative, escapist, and intelligently angry disc that makes you want to go out and do something." - Inland Empire Weekly
"Of course, it’s the music that makes a chance cyber meeting with Regime Noir such a nice surprise: serious, best-kept-secret talent. Making good on their claim to be “born from the dystopia found in the streets of downtown and East L.A.,” Regime Noir marry ultra-articulate bass lines, swaths of post-punk/new-wave guitar and frantic faux-flamenco flurries — and add imploring emo vocals dipped in juicily exotic harmonies. Beats are urgent and garagey; hand-percussion is of the streets and in the moment. Mood is confrontational yet palatable; there’s melody, momentum and a genuine sense of flab-free sonic purpose." - LA WEEKLY
Regime Noir is reflective of the city of Angels. No, not Hollywood, or the Westside, but true Los Angeles. They are born from the dystopia found in the streets of downtown and East LA, where a sound is formed in the garages, backyards, and living rooms outside of the glitz and glamour. Here there exists a community of people; artist, musicians, and intellectuals, that feed off of each other and are forced to coexist until a whole entity is created. Regime use these influences and watch them coalesce into a sonic identity not heard in the trendy clubs or the gilded circles of LA socialites. They are heard on the turntables and cassette decks of the eastside and everywhere the true heart of the city resides. Regime Noir's sound can be described as fierce flamenco-punk guitar and pulsating bass tones, mixed in with keys, samples and various hand percussion. Together they send a wall of rhythmic sound and in your face energy reminiscent of the days of early LA underground punk.
Regime has shared the stage with: Free Moral Agents, The Valley Arena, War Tapes, Suicide Club, Tygers of Wrath, Bullet for Dali, Gliss, Oslo, and Veil Veil Vanish. They have appeared at Club Moscow, The Mountain Bar, The Viper Room, Hang the Djs, The Echo, The Scene Bar, The Hear Gallery, Safari Sam's, and various downtown loft parties.
