With an explosive debut album as well as countless gigs, festivals and

support slots under their belts, St Deluxe have bottled and distilled

their sound ready to unleash it on the world. Think Dinosaur Jr, My

Bloody Valentine, Teenage Fanclub and a whole host of other noise-niks

updated for 2010. Ear-bleedingly loud and ready for SXSW - get them

while they're hot!"

Vic Galloway, BBC Radio 1 & BBC Radio Scotland.



St Deluxe make Glaswegian fuzz-pop with beautiful noise. Fans already

include Alan McGee ("St. Deluxe are brilliant, a Scottish Nirvana for

the 21st Century"), Teenage Fanclub's Norman Blake ("Scotland's Uber

noise/pop merchants. I love 'em!"), Mogwai's Stuart Braithwaite

("Great guitar pop. They have a fine collection of guitar pedals and

are not afraid to use them!") and Tim Burgess of the Charlatans (“I

have played New Wave Stars on repeat constantly, great lyrics great

sound kinda mixes up Bleach era Nirvana, Tom Verlaine and

Bandwagonesque period Teenage Fanclub.Pushes all the buttons,

MONOCHROME ROCK N ROLL”) .



Their self-titled UK debut, released on February 9th 2009 through

Poppydisc, showcases 11 songs wrapped in dirty guitars, fuzz bass and

off-kilter drums. Influenced by noise-oriented indie-rock

troublemakers like Sonic Youth, MBV and Jesus and Mary Chain as well

as the scuzz-pop of Pavement, Sebadoh and Dinosaur Jr, the visceral

rock thrills are perfectly balanced by addictive melodies.



'St Deluxe' was recently released through Star Sign records in Japan

to great acclaim, and has distribution secured throughout Germany and

Sweden.



Further recordings feature guest producers like Calvin Johnson of K

Records/Beat Happening and Stuart Braithwaite.



The band have a healthy live reputation thanks to blistering shows

across the UK, an appearance at SXSW in Texas and support slots in Scotland

with underground heroes Mudhoney, the Vaselines and Sonic Boom

(Spectrum/Spacemen 3).
