SLIMEY THINGS

Bio:

SLIMEY THINGS are Australia's most exciting sci-fi rock band. They are humanoid. SLIMEY THINGS were first sighted in the venues of Sydney's underground in the year 2001. Their sound is an energetic blend of catchy pop, futuristic rock, sci-fi movie soundtrack music and zany cartoon sound effects. Since their formation by front-man, composer and radioactive super-sleuth Nick Soole, SLIMEY THINGS have received acclaim as one of the most unique, entertaining and hygenic acts to emerge from Sydney. With widespread radio airplay, videos on RAGE and their new MADE BY ROBOTS FOR ROBOTS CD /DVD now available at www.slimeythingswebsite.com, it's only a matter of time before the catchy rhythms of SLIMEY THINGS cannot be contained and finally breach Earth's puny defenses. "Finally, given the closing spot, quirksters Slimey Things brought the audience to their knees – either out of awe or fits of laughter. The sci-fi-prog-pop-rock band stuck true to character and delivered a set that was out of this world. Singer/guitarist Nick Soole entertained the crowd with deft one-liners about aliens and a myriad of facial expressions to add to his quacking knack for absurd vocals. Despite the band’s novelty, they are in fact a group of incredible musicians. Playing mind-boggling technical hits with ease (and big grins!) the band effortlessly flowed through odd metered pop songs and kept the midnight oil burning strong with a strong finish." - MUSIC FEEDS 3RD NOVEMBER 2009 BY KRYSTAL BRINKLEY VIDEOS AT http://www.youtube.com/quantumrealitytv AND http://www.slimeythingswebsite.com ..
