Über mich

Motto
Save The World, Get The Girl out now
Ich über mich
“This is rough, radical music that should unsettle the rulers of this country. A new generation of musicians are challenging war- monger politicians and their courtiers (Bono, Geldof etc). I hope these songs prosper.” Tariq Ali

Jonny ‘Itch’ Fox - vocals and ukulele
Jamie Jazz - vocals and guitar
Fruitbag - vocals and guitar

The King Blues are one of the UK punk underground’s best loved bands, and they’re now primed for an assault on the wider world having signed to new label Field Recordings.

The band have a commitment to politics and resistance culture, and are vocal supporters of anti-racism and anti-capitalism. Though they have played most of the UK’s major rock festivals they are just likely to be seen playing Zapatista benefit gigs, squat shows and Love Music Hate Racism festivals as they are the more traditional touring circuit. They do however refuse to rigidly define their politics, instead pooling individual beliefs for a wider common goal.

    In 1997 a girl called lauren was walking in a forest and then a she just dissapeared no one ever found her untill 2000 when a yoing girl called Mary found her body and markings on her chest saying: I wasnt pretty enough" and now you have read this she will appear in your mirror saying your not pretty enough and kill you. by the way the girl called mary</3 died shortly after. To be saved paste this to 5 other bands. THIS IS TRU Now yuv started readin dis dunt stop. This is so scary. Send this to 5 ova bands in 143 Minutes.

    Room 1, Live Room



    The King Blues, described by Kerrang! as 'The most exciting live band in Britain', Featuring two acoustic guitars, a ukulele and a Melodeon, The King Blues' music is a heady and life-affirming concoction of soul-tinged ska, street poetry, working class/protest folk, dub bass lines and doo-wop melodies, all delivered with a punk attitude. Myspace.com/thekingblues





    The Arrows Of Love's heady alternative rock sound draws comparisons with elements of

    world changing early 90's bands whilst retaining a distinctly English voice and it's own style. Myspace.com/arrowsoflove

    More Light More Power, a statement of defiance, streaming guitar, marching rhythm, lightening strike to open hearts and the sublime magic of knowing the threat behind the silence, a violent ritual in warm synthesizer with cold resolution. Myspace.com/morelightmorepowerlond

    Pocket Lips are 7 members strong with three vocalists, drums, bass, keys and are fresh back from playing with DJ Yoda the awesome Mr Margaret Scratcher on the turntables. The band have been working and touring with other artists such as Roots Manuva, The Dub Pistols, and Babyshambles, while Mr Hudson has asked them to remix his next single. Myspace.com/pocketlips





    Honey Weasel are a dynamic duo consisting of Hagop Matossian 'Honey' and Aaron Horn 'Weasel'. Their sound is a fusion of samples taken from their favourite tunes/seminal movies, jammed with their own beats to create a delectable ever changing mush. Myspace.com/honeyweasel
