The Old Romantic Killer Band play blues, hard. Our debut record is out RIGHT NOW and it's called ' The Swan With Two Necks' and its out on Bad Sneakers Records.
Nice Words:
"The balls well and truly hit the walls during this debut amalgamation of blues-rock and some downright dirty grunge. Luckily the literal sound of balls slapping off walls is drowned out by the aggressive bi-polar nature of The Old Romantic Killer Band’s explosive song composition." - Clash Magazine
"The Old Romantic Killer Band are what rock should be: loud, angry and over before you can take a breath..." - N.M.E
"The strongest aspect of The Old Romantic Killer Band is having great songs, otherwise, in the words of Barack Obama, they might be just a little bit too awesome." - Artrocker
"The Old Romantic Killer Band are the real deal; a genuinely exciting prospect who surely won't remain under the radar for much longer" - Drowned in Sound
