we - SLUDGEFEAST (or 'the Feast' to our friends) hail from the British seaside resort of Bournemouth. we play stupidly overdriven, fuzzed-out rock'n'roll in the manner taught to us by our Jet-Rock forefathers the mighty Guitar Wolf (amongst others) and we play it at a kind of unsafe volume. we release records on the Must Destroy label (www.mustdestroymusic.com) former home to The Darkness and also home to the likes of Do Me Bad Things, Feable Weiner, The Agenda and Computerman (to name but a few) here in the UK.
aside from all that, we live for video games and intense alcohol consumption.
our latest 'mesterpiece' VIRTUA-ROCK is in stores NOW! (buy it, buy it!)... for those who need something nice (or not so nice) to look at, Virtua-Rock comes with a bonus full length DVD featuring a shit-load of videos and live shit... plus a mini-documentary entitled DISASTOUR.
did we mention you should buy it?
nice to meet you.
WHAT THE PRESS HAVE SAID ABOUT THE 'FEAST :::::
'Like the rotten apple at the bottom of the barrel, it seems that Sludgefeast's sole purpose is to infect everything in close proximity with their putrefying power. Such reliance on filtering everything - and we mean everything - through a thick layer of scuzzy crunch and woofer-worrying bassness even threatens to outstrip kindred maverick spirits Royal Trux on the odd occasion'
NME
"Sludgefeast deal In fucked up, fuzzed up sludgey garage rock and play it the way it's supposed to be played - waaaaay too bleedin' loud"
(8/10) Metal Hammer
"the worst band in Bournemouth"
Bournemouth Evening Echo
"Sludgefeast simply refuse to pander to such essentially tedious concepts as taste, intelligence and competence"
The Indepenent
"about as original as the common cold"
Daily Mirror
"too heavy for me. Just about bearable due to the shortness of it all, but it'll never be played again"

Its been selling faster than we expected, and we currently only have around a quarter of our stock left - so we thought we'd better you all know that if you want a copy then now would be a good time to pick one up! If you buy it from the link above then you're buying it direct from us, the label aren't taking a cut - so its a bit like Fair Trade for struggling musicians.
International mail-order is available, just follow the instructions.
Thank you very much, and sorry for making a mess of your profile. If its any kind of consolation, we don't have a MySpace bot, so I'm leaving these comments the old fashioned way. Three -and-a-half thousand of them. My life is so exciting.

EMERSIONI FESTIVAL sta giungendo al suo epilogo e prima di ospitare i francesi ULAN BATOR per la serata finale del 14 maggio, questo giovedì 30 aprile vedremo sul palco del Thermos il duo veneto dei MOJOMATICS, di cui da un po’ si sente parlare un gran bene in giro.
MOJOMATICS Si sono fatti le ossa suonando in giro per l’Italia e soprattutto per l’Europa prima di diventare uno dei gruppi italiani più chiacchierati del momento. Famosi per i live energici e infuocati, non nascondono le chiare origini garage blues dalle tinte sixties e anzi ne fanno orgogliosamente il loro marchio di fabbrica. Country, punk e beat frullati e risputati addosso al pubblico con classe e autenticità. Uscito per la Ghost records, il loro ultimo lavoro “Don’t Pretend That You Know Me” ha raccolto riscontri positivi praticamente su ogni rivista o web-zine e segna un passo avanti in direzione pop rispetto agli esordi più marcatamente delta blues.
I MoHa! sono uno dei giovani nomi di spicco della Rune Grammofon, etichetta norvegese che può vantare tra le sue file artisti del calibro di Supersilent, Motorpsycho e Scorch Trio, formazioni insomma che con le loro imperscutabili (ma maledettamente accessibili) miscele di free-jazz, avanguardia, noise, psichedelia, stanno scrivendo una delle pagine più importanti della musica del 2000.
Il duo di Stavanger esplora territori lugubri, affrontandoli ora con scansioni ritmiche math/prog, ora con clangori e singulti rumorosi e sospesi, in ogni caso lontani da una staticità senza rischi.
Degni portavoce del suono "norvegese" e, a nostro parere, tra i migliori gruppi che possiamo vantare nelle Marche e oltre, i Beasts rincareranno la dose con i loro intrecci abrasivi di chitarra, batteria e power electronics.
AGGIORNAMENTO: interverranno anche i californiani sBACH (Usa), band di Spencer Seim (chitarrista degli Hella).
