....and our top London jaunt when we played the Hope & Anchor January 2007...
Bradford is an uneasy mix of low pay and high expectations. The sky is often grey and so are the pound shops. The analog bombs are a scruffy bunch of misfits who appreciate the better things that are often overlooked by the hoi polloi. We likes beer and jokes and lyrics and are proud of what we do, and our city. Scratch the surface and you’ll find a thriving underground of people who love music, all types of music, and we’re dead glad to be part of that scene.
We sound like a drunken mix of baggy indie, Ska and 60's psychedelia all held together by beer, tabs and graft. We all loves it though, even though it may not seem that way what with the arguments and such, Hell we even split up before we did the demo. But after the beer haze had cleared, and with the clarity of hangover everything was alright again. Well apart from Danny being to drunk to play the tambourine.
We've played in some ace places, The Dublin Castle in Camden, The Cockpit in Leeds, The Hope and Anchor in Islington, The Roadhouse in Manchester, Delius in Bradford (heh heh heh) and we've always got another few top gigs coming up. We've been mentioned in the NME, MONO, the T&A and Lee's porn mags. We're just ace.
We're trying to do something different, and we think we are. We hope you like it too.
Cheers
Deano
Here's some quotes as to what people think of us....
"....they set the night off with sixties inspired psychedelia and ska. I love this band because they love what they do and they do it for a laugh, no pretension here...." - Sandman Magazine
"...never less then totally entertaining..." - Dalliance.co.uk
"...a good piece of scruffy guitar fun..." Leeds Music Scene
"...then the Analog Bombs took to the stage, with their ska-inspired punk indie. With singer Ben swaggering about the stage, the band provided a perfect backdrop for all those lazing around in the sunshine..." - The T & A
"...Bradford’s favourite homegrown, rip-roaring, beer-swilling post-punkists..." - The Love Apple Bloke
"....how can you possibly play that drunk?..." - Keighley punter
Easily one of our best catches to date, Wintermute are currently one of the most exciting acts on the Leeds scene. Fresh from a nationwide tour supporting Oceansize and with debut Ep 'Fun With Wizard Stencils' due to be released early August, Wintermute are surely set to make it big in 2008. Support for the evening comes from promising new Hebden electro-rock outfit Fires.
"A curious combo of At The Drive-In and Interpol, splashed with a bit of Foals-ian mathletics, tight and adventurous, Wintermute are cool." NME
"...punchy and pop-infected, akin to The Futureheads poising notes at sharper angles. Ditch the doubts at the door: expect to be impressed. " Rock Sound
