BOMB FACTORY
"It's art punk rock. It's loud; it's spoken word, apoplectic ranting, yelping and screaming to driving rhythms and furious guitars. It's the sound of now and very possibly tomorrow as well. Why? Because we are Bored shitless with off-the-peg, Pop Idol, consumer culture - the Spectacular Society where all you can see are things and their price. We wanted to do it ourselves. We want you to do it yourself. Ideas. Passion. Up yours to a trash celebrity elite created in boardrooms to keep you enthralled, passive, obedient. No more icons anymore. Blow it up, burn it down, kick it till it breaks. That's why"
Bomb Factory release their latest Ep ('Tapes') on Nov 2nd. Produced by Paul Tipler (Idlewild, 80's Matchbox B-Line Disaster)
Conceived as a sort of situationist prank by a group of Norfolk-based misfits, Fuck Dress have accidentally become a little bit popular.
The debut Suburban Nietzsche Freak single (and its crazed companion promo video) was acclaimed as the hit of the summer in Spain and Italy. The song's sledgehammer refrain of "God is dead so I listen to Radiohead" was to be heard wafting out of radios across the continent. This unexpected success was swiftly followed by a Spanish tour in November 2008.
Fuck Dress gigs are genuine events featuring a crazed girl at the front of the stage mauling her two drum kit. a grumbling, misanthropic, borderline aspergers front man and cascading, caterwauling guitars.
The forthcoming, as yet untitled, album is will be released in spring 2010 by Words On Music (US/UK) and Primeros Pasitos (Spain).
Locally based melodic math-rockers, with influences as wide ranging as Portishead, Bonny Prince Billy, Martha Wainwright, Black Sabbath and the Pixies.
