BAD FOR LAZARUS + TO THE BONES

Event information

> BAD FOR LAZARUS

From bits of various bands including Eighties Matchbox, forged together like Frankenstein’s creature, came a band called Bad for Lazarus. GARAGE MOTOWN HELL PUNK ROCK N ROLL ACTION

... After various misadventures in the field of rock and roll, Bad For Lazarus grouped together to share their love of roadside services, small vans and the assured destruction of every onstage monitor and mic-stand in the country. They like Motown and we like Richard Hell...so we sound like Motown Hell. A new album has just been recorded for release later this year with the guys from UNKLE.

> TO THE BONES

"To The Bones are a heavy metal Pixies homage who conjure up histrionic slabs of exhilarating, white-hot squall.... If the imagery is fantastical, the riffs are plain fantastic." (NME)

"The sort of righteous, riff-heavy noise that makes you wonder where QOTSA would have ended up if Josh Homme hadn't swapped Nick Olivieri for the Hollywood Hills ... some of the best throttle rock anthems we've heard all year... thrilling, unpredictable, rough round the edges, and all the better for it" (The Fly)

"To The Bones make scuzzed up, fuzzed out, full blooded future rock filled with enough experimentation to make it intriguing and enough hooks to make it compelling. It’s surging, frenetic stuff that needs a mosh pit and a sweaty grin to be truly appreciated" (BBC Introducing)
