"Unusual listening experience indeed. Backed with tuneful indie meanderings"

- ARTROCKER

"Melodic songs and great rhythm, matched perfectly with intelligent lyrics"

- NME

"[L]ike a punky Idlewild or REM... worthy of your ears' attention!"

- indiemusic.co.uk

"Worth paying proper attention, there’s some depth here, intelligence, something that suggests a band who demand a little more from themselves. He’s got a bit of an early days Elvis Costello feel to that voice, bit of a Smiths/Buzzcocks vibe, a poppy indie Clash in there maybe? They’ve got a bit of a knowing swagger, a slice of contemporary class, and he is a great singer, lot of hope here. Impressive slice of classic English post punk pop that sounds very much like a thing from now but so easily could be a classic from the very best days, yes, we want some more please"

- ORGAN

"[C]ombining elements of post-punk with pop... ‘Gunshot’ packs together some bouncy rhythms with some classic rock and roll guitars. If you are as intrigued as much as I am, look out for more material in the future"

- Room Thirteen

"Starting like a choppier Pixies, The Shills quickly mutate into a gang-of-brothers indie rock combo with a nod or two towards The View, The Clash and Razorlight when they were fun… very impressive!

- Subba Culture

"The Shills have one of the most distinctive and original voices around"

- Dave Halliwell, ex-Verve and Beta Band Manager

"Classic Indie with a hint of old fashioned Rock 'n' Roll genius"

- Jezz Salis, BBC Radio

"indisputable musical talent and the ability to write quality songs"

- Noise Addiction

"should startle you into taking notice, with the hairs on the back of your neck crawling"

- R*E*P*E*A*T

   關於 The Shills




!!! Start Code To Apply Top Banner !!!!
!!! End Code To Apply Top Banner !!!

After a successful year of touring, 2009 culminated in the critically acclaimed release of The Shills' debut single, "Apparition."

These five post-punkers who hail from Cambridge don’t hang about when it comes to knocking together thorny three-minute wonders with a classic British charm reminiscent of The Smiths, Pulp, The Clash and Elvis Costello.

"Contemporary music is moderate,” states front man Tom. “We want to put some intelligence and fervour back into Rock 'n' Roll... We use our band as a vehicle to escape our otherwise overwhelming state of inertia. Music will always give us this release; we want our music to give others the same release.”

In addition to being championed by leading UK industry rags NME and Artrocker, The Shills have been taken under the wing of producer Roger Fife (Manic Street Preachers, Tricky, Antony And The Johnsons), Dave Halliwell (ex-Verve) and The Joe Strummer Foundation who all recognised that this is the band who will soon be bursting into the mainstream consciousness with their honest, upfront and undeniably catchy indie rock.

Hey there,

Here's one from left field...

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?

A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:

Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella

Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.

Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.

I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4

Help to raise awareness.

Say have you checked out my web site recently?

Take care and keep in touch.

Best,
Faber.
