"Believe the hype cos Odd shApEd hEAd are simply f**king amazing"

Get Rhythm magazine



If you only see 1 band this year make it Odd shApEd hEAd

BBC Newcastle.



"Leapfrogging conventional rock sounds and hop-scotching conformity, these unassuming young gentlemen yell Up your pigeon-hole! to an industry obsessed with format and repeated musical templates.

"In the humble surroundings of a quaint English seaside village, four of the three members of odd shaped head reside in chaotic harmony: Paul (Bass/Vocals), Jamie (Guitar/ Vocals), and Rob (Drums); from childhood chums to grown up geeky misfits.



"Their eclectic brand of energetic, rhythmic, funk-punk; jerky bass popping, powerful scatterbrained drumming, swooping synth lines and stabbing guitars bursting into vibrant melodies draws more fans along to venues already packed with a collage of bohemians and misfits.



"Playing to packed out audiences in such venues as Newcastle and Glasgow: Carling Academies, Liverpool: Barfly, London: Astoria, Dublin Castle, The Sage: Gateshead, The Cockpit: Leeds and hundreds more, Odd Shaped Head are electric, energetic and thouroughly entertaining.



"'This is eclecticism at it’s best. Driving angular guitars, st-st-stuttering drums and sun-drenched harmonies blend into a sound that is as unique as their incredible live shows. That they’ve managed to tie their sound down at all is a small wonder, to improve on it is nothing short of amazing'

"Following such positive media feedback, came an interview with Steve Lamacq and exclusive radio play of Egomatic Annie on BBC Radio 1 'In New Music We Trust'

"'Made to no formula but their own, it's got both of its feet on the right side of quirky. Hook after hook is layered and melded into and onto each other. Here is a band who absolutely do not give a fuck what else is being made around them. The fact that in the space of three minutes and twenty eight seconds they manage to drag what is essentially a pop song through the realms of punk, rock, (what some people might call) indie and even a little bit of prog shows their utter disregard for fashions – a highly appealing characteristic in these days of 5-minute-fads and haircut rockstars'

"The really exciting news is that with half a new album already written, the oddness has only really just begun.



I want a red oneyou can have an orange one well you cant always get what you want! is the Odd shApEd mantra chanted as a dull grey world is assaulted with splatters of bold bright colour.



Mucho Love, thE hEAd xx
