iLike The StopMotion Men

Sounds Like"Urgent and at times manic expression... A band on the verge of something big..."

Bristol University Magazine

"Strong narrative, story led songs with some unique twists and sonic tidal waves...A band marked by intelligence, creativity, artistry and vision. Gormandising for the senses, dramatic soundtracks to the movies of your life"

Martin Kendrick, noisemakesenemies.co.uk

"With the Epic leanings of Martin Grech, and the flame-to-fuse delivery of intensity and passion throughout recalling early Pearl Jam, The StopMotion Men have created a tasty nugget of impassioned rock... perhaps this is the new wave? Either way, you’ll love it!"

Jeremy Chick, subba-cultcha.com

"Like a cross between The Hellset Orchestra and Muse...These songs are masterfully well written, delivered with real purpose and surely destined to be venue fillers"

Shane Blanchard, tastyfanzine.org.uk

"Really addictive listening...epic, intentionally cinematic...a rock sound reminiscent of Pearl Jam or even Muse at times...why aren't this band signed yet?" Rated 11 out of 13

Emma Gould, roomthirteen.com

"The StopMotion Men have thrown out the normal bass guitar and opted for a piano in there instead, giving a massive rock sound with opportunities for a huge dynamic range, which they certainly exploit to the full...They reach out with soaring melodies...Leaves me with baited breath waiting for what's coming next."

Punkscene.co.uk

"When you consider that the only instruments they play on this release are piano, guitar and drums, they certainly manage to push out a huge sound which is urgent, manic, expressive, passionate and full of vigour and goes a long way to show that this is a band in a state of rapid development.."

Don Gibbs, Hardrockhouse.com

"Innovative and imaginative, with a highly original approach.."

Dean Hill, tourdates.co.uk

   About The StopMotion Men


Buy our downloads from indiestore.com





The StopMotion Men are a unique hybrid of music and film from Cardiff, South Wales. Their live performances offer an experience like no other, combining alternative rock with cinema-esque visuals. Imagine going to see a rock band play along to your favorite film in a cinema and you'd be close.

Their inspiration is drawn from the music and films of Pearl Jam, Danny Elfman, Smashing Pumpkins, John Williams, Darren Aronofsky, Christopher Nolan and David Lynch to mention just a few. They would like to thank our disposable society for its endless source material.

Dear STOPMOTION MEN,

Frank has gone to look for his reel to reel, because he wants to record a new song,(that I am going to make a 'video' for.)So while he does that, I thought I would send you this thank you note for becoming a friend to reema-leema. We want to put up lots of new and old films up on this site, and we hope you enjoy them.

"Franksworld" - our latest film, is being shown at the Nexus cafe in Manchester on June 27th, so if you want to see it in its enirety-and you live nearby, why don't you come along.(See BEATNIK tv space for details.) Otherwise,you can find clips from it on places like 'youtube'.

Anyway, best wishes-

Brian Little.

ps: here is a  new clip from "franksworld" -hope you like it.

Hi, just thought I'd bring to your attention the reduced the rehearsal room prices. It's worth having a look to see if it's now cheaper than where you currently rehearse.


Also, the equipment prices are pretty reasonable too if you are interested in hiring anything.


Thanks!
